This school set me up for college but did nothing about any obstacles I faced there, unless it ran the risk of impacting the school or its reputation
5/15/2024
My experience during my time at Upper merion high school for the past three years as been life changing ,compare to my previous high school experience. There is some distrust between the administration and the school population. I have had a lovely time with some of my fellow classmates. They have been helpful and welcoming. I would like an improvement in the food provided by the school.
12/11/2023
overall, my experience at Upper Merion has been mostly positive. I enjoy most of my classes and teachers because if I don't understand something, my teacher will explain it to me in depth instead of either giving me the answer or giving me a vague answer. The school tries to focus on diversity a lot. We have a muslim club and have events to raise money for fundraisers. The only thing about the school that I don't like is some of the students but that would happen in any school.

I feel that I can say with experience and expertise that the staff and administrators at UM are compassionate, well-organize...

As a current student, I would not necessarily recommend this school district. They are extremely hypocritical and say they care about their students when they do not, as in the summer of 2020, multiple hate accounts were created spewing hate towards certain groups of students. I and a few others att...

Teachers/staff have been great!My child is thriving and learning.I’d go easier on the AP courses though…come on I went to Berkeley and 2 other Universities…an undergrad course is typically not that demanding in college and uni ; ) The best classes are the ones that teach, inspire, and encourage…one...
