Manor College entered into an Academic Partnership Agreement with the Ukrainian Heritage School to enrich educational opportunities for students attending Ukrainian Heritage School by granting qualified students college credits in Ukrainian Language Studies. Andrea Zharovsky, Ukrainian Heritage School Assistant Principal and Mary Kolodij who sits on both the Manor College Board and the Ukrainian Heritage School Board, worked with Sally Mydlowec, Manor College’s Executive Vice President and Dean of Academic Affairs to craft the Academic Partnership Agreement. Under the Agreement, Manor College will award 6 academic college credits to students who satisfactorily complete Elementary Ukrainian I, 3 credits and Elementary Ukrainian II, 3 credits. Manor will provide students with an official transcript showing 6 credits earned from Manor College. It is hoped that UHS graduates will continue their college studies at Manor College. “The Ukrainian Heritage School is committed to promoting the education and cultural development of children participating in the community life of the Philadelphia Area Ukrainian- American community. To further this goal, the Ukrainian Heritage School has been working with Manor College to encourage school age children in the Philadelphia Area Ukrainian-American community to enroll in and benefit from the educational opportunities provided by the Ukrainian Heritage School. Manor College is willing to share its educational experience and academic rigor with the Ukrainian Heritage School, as the Ukrainian Heritage School seeks to ensure the continuing quality of its academic programs.” acknowledges Andrea Zharovsky, UHS Assistant Principal. “Students who are second or third generation Ukrainian-Americans now have more opportunity to use the knowledge gained in the Ukrainian Heritage School on their visits to Ukraine, and in colleges and universities as they pursue higher levels of education.” Zharovsky concluded.
