Love this school! My children have been going there for the past 6 years and they love it! Top notch teachers! We have waited to move just so our kids can finish out @ Northmoor .

My daughter loves this school. I have to say I agree. Very pleased with the teacher and most of all principal. I really think he knows all the kids names. One of the things that impressed me the most is how the principal greets each student by name. He is also very easily approachable. My only regret is that we will be having to move this summer and cannot take the principal and teachers with us.

My son went to Northmoor for pre-k and his teacher was AMAZING! Mrs. Trent was so down to earth and patient with my son, and all of the children. Her classroom was neat and very organized, and my son always had wonderful things to say about his day at school. Her teaching assistant was also the most wonderful woman! My son grew to love both of them. He loved going to school and learned a great deal while in her class. Now my oldest son had the exact opposite experience in his kindergarten class. He was bullied, not only by his teacher but also by another child in the class. He never had homework, and the teacher REFUSED to speak with me about my son's progress. Little did I know he was behind in reading, which has continued into 1st grade, and she never EVER made me aware of this. She behaved as if the children were irritating her, and that she hated her job. I had a discussion with the principal and another teacher about her and they both agreed she was a stain on this wonderful school's image! I hope that she is fired and isn't allowed to ruin any other childrens kindergarten experience! If you can send your child somewhere else for Kindergarten, PLEASE DO!!

Before attending Northmoor all we heard about was what a great school it was and how nice and friendly everyone is and we have not been disappointed. The Principal greats every student by name at the front door everyday. The teachers are children have had have been wonderful and by looking at the test scores they seem to have high academic standards. This is truely a great school!!!

Northmoor is a great school. Every teacher my daughter has ever had is caring, patient, and willing to help. They have all been very good about keeping the parents informed about my childs progress and she has learned more than i could have ever expected. Keep up the good work teachers!

My family is very happy with this school. We are a militay family so it is hard for kids to move to a new school, but northmoor has made it easy. They made my fifth and sixth grader feel right at home. I am informed regulary on their progress. We could not have asked for better teachers or school.

Northmoor is fantastic. The Reading program is very energetic, keeps the kids wanting to learn more. Teachers have high expectations of themselves as well as the students. My Granddaughter is exceeding with the knowledge of the teachers. And with the family atmosphere that is in this school.
