Moorestown school counselors are student advocates who are committed to individual uniqueness and the maximum development of human potential. In their roles as members of the educational team, they consult and collaborate with teachers, administrators, and families to ensure that all school programs facilitate the educational process and offer the opportunity for school success for each student. As specialists in human behavior and relationships, Moorestown school counselors provide assistance through four primary interventions: counseling (individual and group), large group guidance, consultation and coordination. The counseling office of Moorestown High School provides counseling services as described in multiple handouts distributed throughout the year. Programs provided by this department are designed to help all students develop their educational, social, career and personal strengths and to become responsible and productive citizens. Counselors help create and organize these programs, as well as provide appropriate counselor interventions. As student advocates, the counselors are committed to individual uniqueness and the maximum development of human potential. School counseling services are an integral part of the school’s total educational program. School counselors serve as a liaison between the home and school, the teacher and student, school and college, school and employer, and student and peers. Getting to know the student well through grade level meetings and understanding the student’s aptitudes, abilities and aspirations help the counselor to carry out this important function. The counseling relationship is a dynamic helping process in which the counselor establishes a trusting and confidential relationship which focuses on problem-solving, decision-making and discovering personal meaning related to learning and development. From grades 9 through 12, Moorestown High School counselors meet with students individually and in large and small group settings to advise and counsel on matters such as academic success, course selection, interpersonal relationships with adults and peers, extracurricular involvement, transition issues, and career and post-secondary planning. Helping students find success within a complex, multi-faceted society is at the heart of all counseling activities and services. Student records such as a permanent record card and cumulative folder are maintained in the Counseling Office. The official transcript is used to transmit students’ academic records to colleges and/or perspective employers. Information about a student is not released without permission of the student and parent. Counseling Services include: • Individual and group counseling • Orientation for incoming 9th graders and new students • Academic achievement counseling • Course selection and program planning • Standardized testing • Informational events for students/parents such as college fairs, financial aid seminars, curriculum nights, etc. • College/career resource management • Counseling website maintenance and updates • College and career counseling • College application and transcript service • Working papers Introduction 2019-2020 4 • Personal and social counseling • Peer mediation and conflict resolution Assignment of Counselors Each student is assigned a counselor for the duration of his or her high school experience. Counselor assignments are alphabetical and adjusted annually for balance in August. Introduction This Program of Studies is designed to be the major reference for students, parents and school personnel involved in curriculum planning at Moorestown High School (MHS). It is a complete guide to all possible course offerings at MHS. Each department has had the opportunity to describe the programs available. The material is presented in a format designed to highlight the essential components of each course. This Program of Studies catalog should be an excellent reference guide for a student’s long-range course planning. A sound high school course of study should prepare

The vision of our founders was to carry out research to improve understanding of the economic and social forces that affect people’s lives, and the ways in which policy can bring about change. Eighty years later, this remains central to NIESR’s ethos. We continue to apply our expertise in both quantitative and qualitative methods and our understanding of economic and social issues to current debates and to influence policy.

It is important to maintain a breadth of curriculum to enable successful progression later on. The Government wants the majority of students to follow a curriculum, which contains the subjects of the English Baccalaureate (English, maths, science, history or geography and a modern or ancient language). The Ebacc is a suite of subjects not a qualification in itself. Employers may well look for these qualifications as well as other skills and attributes. We believe that our curriculum offers choice for all students of all abilities and we will continue to personalise and direct pupils’ choices based on previous attainment, potential and the professional advice of staff. All pupils must choose either history or geography and two other subjects. Pupils who are capable of studying a language to GCSE (Spanish, French or German) will be guided to choose a language in addition to either history or geography.

  • Year 9 Options 2021
    Year 9 Options 2021 Introduction The purpose of this booklet is to provide you and your parents with information which will help towards making decisions about which subjects you should study in Years 10 and 11. The end of Year 9 represents a landmark in your school life as it represents the point at which you embark on examination courses that will have a large influence on the rest of your life. Many of the subjects will be building on the skills and knowledge acquired during Years 7, 8 and 9, but there will be an opportunity to take up new subjects or specialise in areas where you have shown ability and interest. This booklet is part of the information gathering process which will help you to make your decision about which options to take. Good choices will help to make the next two years both happy and worthwhile. It is also important that you realise what you are taking on when starting on courses that lead to GCSE exams. You should think carefully before making your choices. You will be given as much help as possible. There will be revision classes and mock exams as well as many opportunities to talk to teachers about your progress. Most importantly, it will be down to you. Your success will be determined by your attendance, organisation and effort with both class and homework. 2 Key Stage 4 Rationale English Baccalaureate The English Baccalaureate (EBacc) is a performance measure for schools, awarded when students secure a grade 4 or above at GCSE level across a core of five academic subjects: English, mathematics, history or geography, the sciences and a language.
