Moore Traditional School is a middle school and high school located at 6415 Outer Loop in Louisville, Kentucky.The students at Moore moved into their beautiful new building in January, 1969. This building, which is the largest of all high schools in Jefferson County, Kentucky, was notable for a number of features. The large main gymnasium was contained in the center of the building, off the lobby, and bordered by two parallel rows of classrooms. The art classrooms, located on the second floor of the western end of the building, had balconies that overlooked a courtyard below that separated the main building from the small industrial arts building immediately to its west.Moore High School added a grade in each of the three succeeding years so that by the 1971/1972 school year, the school contained grades 7–12 for the first time. Moore High School immediately made a name for itself in music, as the band won a state championship in those early years and the choral music department put on the musicals "Brigadoon" (1971), "Oklahoma" (1972) and "Pajama Game" (1973).FootballThe Moore Mustangs fielded their first varsity football team in the fall of 1970 at a time when the school's highest grade was its junior class . The going was very difficult early on, as the 1970 team finished 0-10, as did the 1971 team . The 1972 varsity football team was able to tie Doss High School and Fern Creek High School but still remained winless, finishing 0-8-2. At that time, Moore's combined record stood at 0-28-2.Things changed for the 1973 Moore team, however. Many of its players had played in the three seasons leading up to 1973 and had been toughened by that experience. The first game of the season ended in a 6-6 tie with the Western Warriors. Moore traveled to face Ballard High School for its second game of the season and defeated the Bruins 21-12 for its first victory in the school's history. Moore also defeated Fairdale High School, Durrett High School, Fern Creek High School and Southern High School during the 1973 season to compile its first winning season at 5 wins, 4 losses and 1 tie. The victory over Southern was notable for the fact that Southern went on to play in the 1973 Class AAA state championship game and was quarterbacked by a future Super Bowl MVP, Phil Simms . While Simms did not play against Moore due to an injured shoulder, neither did Moore's multi-talented star quarterback Bruce Gilbert, so the teams played the game on a fairly even basis.
