Letter from the Principal

Dear Students:

The Course Catalog has been developed in order to assist you in developing your program of studies for the next school year.  Used properly, this catalog can assist you in which courses to take to meet graduation requirements, college admissions, occupational objectives, and/or vocational interests.

In planning your educational program, you and your parents should closely review all aspects of this booklet and arrive at a decision that that best fits your abilities, interests, and needs.  In order to encourage educational growth, students should select a curriculum that is both rigorous and relevant.  Education is a cooperative responsibility of all concerned and the staff at Upper Moreland High School is prepared to counsel and advise you during this process.

Since our staffing needs at the high school are predicated upon course selection, it is extremely important that this process be given appropriate time effort and planning on the part of each student and his/her family.  Your selections are a commitment to specific courses; our expectation is that these commitments be honored.

Since requests for schedule changes will be honored only in unusual circumstances, with administrative approval, it is important that serious thought and consideration be given to your selection.

Sincerely,

Robert J. Eckley, Ed. D.
Upper Moreland High School Principal
