Past

The original Moore School was built in 1899 next to City Hall on Broadway. It was eventually burned down in 1928, then rebuilt soon after. It served as a school for eight graders on the ground floor, and as the high school on the top floor until 1958.
After the New Moore High School was built, the Old School's first floor has been used as a business outlet. The second floor, being untouched, with lockers remaining on the walls, and the rooms, according to local folklore, having ghosts.
One of the current businesses occupying the Old School, Trifecta Communications, created a documentary 'If These Walls Could Talk: The History of Moore's Old school.' This film includes interviews with the Old School's alumni.
