Upper Moreland Middle School students were asked to create a poster that visually communicated the contest theme "Celebrate Peace."  Congratulations to this years' winner, Carlos Goncalves, who received a check from Willow Grove Lions Club and will go on to represent Upper Moreland in a South Eastern Pennsylvania Regional Competition.

Upper Moreland Middle School Student Council Officers for 2007-2008 school year have been selected.  To be considered for Student Council, the students are required to write an essay explaining why they would be a good leader.  This year, Student Council has a homeroom where students report daily, allowing them the opportunity to work in the mornings and plan upcoming events such as dances, creating websites, school-wide environmental projects, and community service. 

Taking advantage of the fact that food motivates learning, Upper Moreland Middle School Spanish teacher John Grande, with the help of a few moms, cooked 'Churros & Chocolate' for his 8th grade class.  Churros, a sweet, fried-dough pastry, are a popular snack for teenagers all over the Spanish-speaking world.

The Builders Club, an Upper Moreland Middle School student-led community service organization sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Old York Road, collected over 250 scarves, mittens, and hats for families in need. The tree is pictured below.
