Summary

Mooresville Intermediate is a Grades 3–5 school in the Mooresville Graded School District, serving 690 students in Mooresville, North Carolina, alongside several K–2 feeder schools in the same district. The school currently ranks #462 out of 1,492 North Carolina elementary schools — a solidly above-average standing in the 69th percentile with a 3-star rating.

Academically, Mooresville Intermediate beats state averages in every tested subject and grade. Math proficiency ranges from 68% to 74% and reading ranges from 58% to 66%, led by strong early-literacy results: 3rd- and 4th-grade reading scores run about 7–8 points higher than at East Mooresville Intermediate, the district's other Grades 3–5 school with comparable demographics. But the tables turn in upper elementary, where East Mooresville Intermediate leads by nearly 9 points in 5th-grade math and 10 points in 5th-grade science. This suggests reading instruction is a genuine strength, while upper-grade math and science may deserve more attention.

Attendance is a standout: just 13.0% chronic absenteeism versus 17.5% districtwide and 24.2% statewide. Still, the overall ranking disguises some uneven subgroup results. Hispanic students and English learners perform especially well — Hispanic students rank in the 83rd percentile statewide — and low-income students have improved markedly. By contrast, African American students, gifted students, and girls all rank below the school's overall 69th-percentile standing. Given that nearly 45% of students are economically disadvantaged, Mooresville Intermediate edges out nearby Shepherd Elementary and holds its own against schools serving wealthier populations, though Davidson Elementary and Lake Norman Elementary remain far ahead. Encouragingly, 3rd-grade reading has improved by more than 15 points since the 2023–24 school year.
