Summary

Mooneyham Elementary in McKinney, TX, is a high-performing public school serving 553 students from Pre-K through 5th grade as part of the highly-regarded Frisco Independent School District (Isd), consistently earning a 5-star rating and ranking in the top 10-15% of Texas elementary schools.

Mooneyham is a strong, reliable school with a clear strength in reading, where scores consistently exceed district and state averages—especially in 5th grade, which achieved 84.54% proficiency in 2025-2026. The school also excels at supporting English Language Learners, ranking in the 92nd percentile statewide for this group. However, it faces a critical challenge with its low socio-economic status students, whose performance dropped dramatically from the 70th percentile to the 26th percentile, indicating a growing achievement gap. Additionally, there is a consistent dip in math proficiency between 3rd and 4th grade, suggesting a curriculum challenge the school should address. Nearby schools like Norris Elementary (98th percentile) and Liscano Elementary (96th percentile) in the same district, as well as Jim Spradley Elementary in Prosper Independent School District (Isd), outperform Mooneyham overall, placing it in a competitive middle tier among its immediate peers.

Despite these challenges, Mooneyham achieves strong results with relatively efficient resource allocation, spending $8,557 per student—less than some lower-performing nearby schools like Sonntag Elementary ($10,593) and Tadlock Elementary ($9,343). The school serves a relatively affluent community with a low free/reduced lunch rate of 13.2% and maintains a healthy student-teacher ratio of 15.9:1. While Mooneyham is a great school, it is not the top performer in its highly competitive neighborhood, which includes several schools among the best in the state.

Open Quote The teachers are good, but the admin team is pretty poor on helping with any issues besides routine day to day items. If there are any special issues expect them to drag it out as long as possible before anything gets done. And I'm talking months and months if you are lucky. Close Quote
