Northmoor Elementary School serves students from prekindergarten through sixth grade in Moore, Oklahoma, part of the Moore Public Schools district. The school sits in a residential section of this rapidly growing suburb between Oklahoma City and Norman. With an enrollment that places it among the smaller elementary schools in the district, Northmoor provides a neighborhood setting for its students.
State testing results from the 2024-2025 school year show that proficiency rates fall below the midpoint among districts in Cleveland County when looking across all tested subjects and grades. In math, the third-grade cohort demonstrated a low proficiency rate, while fourth grade showed a somewhat higher share reaching the proficient level. Results for fifth and sixth grade math were suppressed due to small group sizes, which prevents a full picture for those grades. In English language arts, third and fourth grade rates were also low, while the fifth-grade cohort produced a higher rate. Again, sixth-grade results were suppressed. Fifth-grade science results were suppressed as well. Because Oklahoma changed cut scores for math and ELA in this testing year, direct comparisons with prior years are not possible, and a parent may want to discuss with the school how current performance compares with previous cohorts.
The student body is diverse. About half of the students are White, with sizable shares identifying as two or more races and as Hispanic. Smaller populations of Black, American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, and Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander students round out the composition. Information on the share of students who qualify for free or reduced-price meals, who receive special education services, or who are English learners was not available in the data provided. Similarly, no data was reported on chronic absenteeism, discipline rates, or staffing ratios, so a family looking for detail in those areas would need to ask the school directly.
The school offers no special charter or magnet status, and grade-level programming information was not included in the available data. Because Northmoor serves only through sixth grade, it has no graduation rate to report.
The community of Moore has experienced substantial population growth over the past few decades, transforming from a small town into a sizable suburban city. The built environment is largely car dependent, with major highways like Interstate 35 running through the area. Civic amenities include a public library, several parks, a community center, and a pool. Nearby employers include a medical center and the Moore Norman Technology Center. The housing market in the zip code shows typical home values and rents that are moderate relative to national figures, and the area is characterized by suburban subdivisions where schools like Northmoor are embedded within residential neighborhoods.
The Moore district has made recent investments in teacher salaries, with the minimum and maximum on the salary schedule rising substantially over a two-year period. District revenue per student has also grown, indicating increased financial commitment to education that supports classroom resources and staffing.
Northmoor Elementary presents itself as a typical suburban public school with a diverse student body. The state test results suggest that overall academic performance is on the lower side relative to other Cleveland County districts, though suppressed data for several grades and the recent cut-score change make it hard to fully gauge trends. Families considering Northmoor will find a school that serves a young population in a growing community, but they may want to seek additional information from the school about classroom supports, enrichment opportunities, and how the school addresses the proficiency challenges indicated in the available assessment data.
