Summary:

The Moon Area School District in Pennsylvania is home to 5 high-performing elementary schools that serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools consistently rank among the best in the state, with several standouts that have earned 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger.

McCormick Elementary School and Bon Meade Elementary School are the top-performing schools in the district, ranking 58th and 69th out of 1,511 Pennsylvania elementary schools, respectively. These schools boast exceptional PSSA test scores, with over 75% of students proficient or better in both math and English language arts.
