Let's Get Smart - STEAM Ahead - provides students with tools to succeed in a rapidly changing technological world. Students benefit through an integrated approach to STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) education focused on real-world and authentic problems. Benefits over 2,000 students. 87754 87754 Emotional Supports Resources Grant: The objectives of the educational project were to provide resources to support self-regulation and behavioral growth among students within the Emotional Support setting. This funding supported the K-2 Autistic students for community-based swimming instruction at the YMCA. 800 800 Post Prom: UMEF sponsored The Upper Moreland High School Post Prom Event. This event's purpose is to provide a safe, supervised, and fun-filled party for UMHS's senior class whether they attend the Senior Prom or not. It takes place in the high school gym immediately following the Senior Prom until 2 am. The party is planned and carried out completely by parent volunteers, but they can't do it alone. This was in support of the inflatable mini golf course. 925 925 Classroom and Library Equipment & Materials: Various classroom and library materials were funded that supported teachers and students to have the needed supplies and tools to help with the education process. This area also funded various furniture like tables, chairs, and special needs items. The English Language Development program's populations has nearly tripled and furniture was needed to accommodate collaborative workspaces. Additionally more flexible seating in the classroom is needed because it engages student to learn in different ways and gets them up and moving. 38142 38142 African American Read-In Event: This funded a well known author for UM's African American Read-In community event in February of 2024. In the world of children's literature, black authors and creators do not receive the same level of publishing as their white counterparts. This discrepancy directly impacts our students and community. Children of color are not able to see themselves represented in books as often as their peers. With Upper Moreland growing more diverse each day, the importance of this event to the UM community cannot be overstated. While helping to highlight and celebrate black authors and creators, this event also works to bring together those in the community. In addition to highlighting local black authors, this year funds secure a larger name author to attend. Hosting a more well-known author will generate increased interest and attendance while showing UM's dedication to celebrating our diverse community. 2500 2500 Purple & Gold Day: This grant helped fund the Upper Moreland School District annual Purple & Gold Spirit Event. This event hosts a variety of activities to include the interests of all students, ranging from arts, sports, music, and various hobbies. This event is a long standing tradition to celebrate the hard work of our student body in a way that fosters collaboration, competition, and teamwork. 1980 1980 Equity alliance of Upper Moreland - UM Community Festival Event: This event supported by UMEF celebrates the diversity of the many cultures represented in Upper Moreland . The event provides families the opportunity to learn something new about their neighbors, strengthen relationships, and foster collective pride by brining together people from all walks of life. 1205 1205 133306 Dan Noble President 0 0 0 0 Gordon Leister Treasurer and Finance Committee Chair 0 0 0 0 Melissa Brown Vice President 0 0 0 0 Kelly Gallagher Director 0 0 0 0 Chris Ellis Director 0 0 0 0 Dee Jaye Fry Director 0 0 0 0 Shannon Meakim Director 0 0 0 0 Judy Brunner Director 0 0 0 0 Tom Cook Director 0 0 0 0 Tim Latini Director 0 0 0 0 Karen Houck Director 0 0 0 0 Meghan Questad Director 0 0 0 0 Dina Cassidy Director 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 PA Gordon Leister 512 Corinthian Ave Hatboro PA 19040 2679667766 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 41588 44073 39777 31452 52198 209088 41588 44073 39777 31452 52198 209088 209088 36 27 9 9 9 90 209178 0.99957 0.99944 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Upper Moreland Business Tax Registration $10 Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 24 Permanently Restricted by the Board - $100 Form 990-EZ, Part II, Line 26 Grants Payable - grant to be paid $14,598
