UM Has Really Changed!

Continuing on with the tour of the school.  Let's start in the gym.  That hasn't changed too much.






Now, that's new.  A rock climbing wall.  Probably better than climbing the ropes like we had to do.




A weight room!  We never had anything like that!


 And Bev's taking full advantage of it!


The trophy case in the hall outside the gym sure has filled up in 50 years!

 On to some classrooms!  These next few are the art rooms.


Graphic arts - all on computer





The lady in light blue is Tom Hassler's wife Jane.


 Carole found the supply room!

 How about music?  No pictures of the rooms themselves, but get a load of the trophies and banners!



 And a mish-mash of pictures of us enjoying the tour.




Whiteboards instead of the old blackboards.  


Bill and Jean holding hands walking down the hall.  As I remember, we weren't allowed to have any physical contact in the halls.


This was a clock with a plaque mentioning Mr. Gamble.  I forget the story behind it.  I wonder where his mallet is?


Saw this sign outside a room - I wonder what they were doing in there?


 Of course, we had to make our presence known!
That handwriting looks very familiar!

A few views from the school:






This is very special.  Mr. Earl Pflugfelder was a teacher at Upper Moreland who was killed in a car crash.  This little stone is in the outside patio area.  What makes this very special for UMHS 63 is the fact that he was married at the time to our own Lynda Wildermuth.  I know this meant a lot to her.
