We have two children at Moore. We are zoned for a school is supposedly the best in the city, but I drive them to Moore every day because of the incredible staff and programs at this school. Our first has been there since Kindergarten. Although he is a difficult child, his teachers in K and 1st were always terrific handling it without making him feel like a bad kid and were very helpful working with us in addressing his problems. Our second is now in Kindergarten and loves it! I can't praise his teacher Mrs. James highly enough. She is the kind of teacher you remember for the rest of your life. I really appreciate the effort the staff as a whole makes to get to know each child. Even people who don't see them on a daily basis know their names and say hi when they see us.

My two grandsons have both attended this school. The learning atmosphere if great. The attention to science is its main focus. This school is about the children and its city neighborhood.

My child attends this school and the school is very clean the staff is very friendly and my child loves to go to school in the mornings it isnt a battle to get out of bed. The office staff is very secure with who comes and goes and if i were new to this city i would be at ease to know this is were i am leaving my child during the day.

The academic programs are great at Moore Magnet, I only wish they had after school programs. Moore Magnet has a wonderful Science Lab for the students. I am not very involved with my sons school, I have two jobs, This makes it very important that the school works extra hard to keep things running smooth, they do. I would say that Moore is the best school in Clarksville.
