Moore Middle

Summary:

Moore Middle is a public middle school located in Redlands, California, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 1,072 students. It is part of the Redlands Unified School District, which is ranked 540 out of 1,568 districts in California and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Over the past several years, Moore Middle has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from the top 25% of California middle schools in 2015-2016 to the top 40% in 2023-2024. The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Asian and African American students performing relatively well, but Hispanic and English Language Learner students performing significantly worse. Additionally, Moore Middle has experienced a steady increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 13.9% in 2017-2018 to 28.9% in 2022-2023, which is notably higher than the district and state averages.

When comparing Moore Middle to other middle schools in the Redlands Unified School District, such as Beattie Middle and Cope Middle, the performance gap is not as significant, as these schools also struggle with lower test scores and higher chronic absenteeism rates, suggesting district-wide challenges. Additionally, Moore Middle has a relatively high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, which may contribute to the school's academic challenges.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
