Summary

Maude Moore Wood Elementary is a PK-5 school in Killeen, TX, serving 728 students within the Killeen Independent School District (Isd) and has established itself as a top performer in the area, ranking in the 73rd percentile statewide. This school stands out for its consistently high academic performance across all grades and subjects, significantly outperforming both district and state averages in Reading and Mathematics. For example, 4th-grade Reading proficiency reached 64.35%, compared to the district's 46.07% and the state's 53.04%. It is tied for the top spot with nearby Cedar Valley Elementary (74th percentile) and Skipcha Elementary (70th percentile), and far outperforms schools like Trimmier Elementary (17th percentile) and Timber Ridge Elementary (27th percentile).

The school has a remarkable turnaround story, rebounding from a low point in the 2020-2021 school year (44th percentile) to stabilize in the top third of Texas elementary schools, reaching a high of the 77th percentile in 2023-2024. It is particularly effective with diverse student groups, earning a 4-star rating for its work with African American, Hispanic, and Low Socio-Economic Status students, and a 5-star rating for its Asian student population. However, there is a notable weakness in 5th Grade Science, where only 12.4% of students were proficient in the 2024-2025 school year, significantly below the district (20.86%) and state (29.57%) averages. Additionally, performance for White and Multi-Racial students has been inconsistent, with rankings dropping from the 76th and 82nd percentiles to the 45th and 38th percentiles, respectively, in the same period.

Maude Moore Wood is a "pocket of excellence" within a district that overall ranks in the 36th percentile statewide, showing that school-level leadership can overcome district-wide challenges. The school also operates efficiently, spending $9,077 per student, which is lower than nearby schools like Nolanville Elementary ($11,315) and Harker Heights Elementary ($11,146), yet achieving superior academic results. With a lower percentage of economically disadvantaged students (46.98%) compared to neighbors like Ira Cross Junior Elementary (81.31%) and Trimmier Elementary (72.92%), this school offers a strong academic environment with targeted support for diverse learners, though parents should be aware of the science performance gap and recent declines for some student groups.
