Summary

Moore Elementary is a mid-sized neighborhood school in South Arlington, serving 839 students from Pre-K through 6th grade in the Arlington Independent School District (Isd), with about half of its students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. This school stands out as a stable, solidly performing option in a neighborhood where nearby schools range from high-performing magnets to those that struggle significantly, offering a reliable middle ground for families.

Moore Elementary shows exceptional strength in serving specific student groups, particularly its Hispanic students who ranked in the 89th percentile statewide in 2024-2025, far exceeding the school's overall performance. The school also demonstrates notable effectiveness for Special Education students, consistently ranking in the 73rd to 79th percentile over recent years, which is a significant advantage compared to lower-performing nearby schools like Key Elementary and Miller Elementary. Additionally, Moore's 6th-grade reading program is a standout feature, with 73.47% of students proficient in reading compared to just 47.37% for the district and 54.21% for the state, indicating strong preparation for middle school.

While Moore excels in reading, its math scores are more mixed, with 4th and 5th-grade math proficiency below state averages, contrasting with nearby Little Elementary where 56.12% of 5th graders were proficient in math. The school's performance for African American students has been a persistent weakness, declining to the 26th percentile in 2025-2026, highlighting an equity gap that needs attention. Moore achieves its solid results with relatively efficient spending ($8,917 per student), lower than struggling neighbors like Key Elementary ($10,015) and Miller Elementary ($9,610), though its overall performance has shown some volatility, dropping from the 76th to the 66th percentile recently.

One of the most amazing teachers I have ever met is at Mary Moore. Mrs. Modawell is the Pre-k teacher. There has been a substantial difference in the knowledge and skills children are receiving from her teaching! She is one of the most kind and caring teachers you could ever meet. She is positive proof that some teachers still care and hold their profession in high regards! Close Quote
