GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My experience at Upper Moreland Highschool was a great one though I only disliked my freshmen year witch was during lockdown in 2020, but overall the school is filled with great teachers and staff always willing to help any student, especially me who was struggling the great help from those teachers is why I graduated an honor student.
