Summary

Upper Moreland Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 1,633 students in grades K-5 in Hatboro, Pennsylvania, which is part of the Upper Moreland Township School District. The school consistently outperforms the state average in PSSA Math and English Language Arts proficiency across all grade levels, and its PSSA Science proficiency rates are significantly higher than the state average, reaching over 80% proficient or better.

One of the school's key strengths is its performance for underrepresented student subgroups. Upper Moreland Elementary ranks in the top 50 schools in the state for African American and Hispanic students, and in the top 100 for multi-racial and English Language Learner students. This indicates the school is providing equitable educational opportunities and support for these students. However, the school's performance for Asian, white, and economically disadvantaged students is more average compared to other Pennsylvania elementary schools.

Despite a significant decrease in per-student spending, from $18,628 in 2021-2022 to $9,654 in 2022-2023, the school has maintained a stable student-teacher ratio, suggesting it is managing its resources effectively. When compared to nearby schools, such as Maureen M Welch Elementary School and Thomas Fitzwater Elementary School, Upper Moreland Elementary generally performs at a higher level, particularly in PSSA Math and Science proficiency. However, some nearby schools outperform Upper Moreland in certain areas, indicating opportunities for collaboration and learning from their best practices.
