The best parts of my experience with Penncrest High School include the numerous amounts of classes offered as well as the administration team. Penncrest does a great job with preparing their students for success and offer many resources. The worst parts of my experience is the lack of diversity. With only about 15% of the school's majority makeup being Asian, I would like to see change in that area.

Penn crest is a great school to go to. Nice neighborhood, safe place. TEACHERS ARE VERY NICE. ACADEMICALLY VERY GOOD SCHOOL. I WOULD RECOMMEND TO ANYONE. VERY SATISFIED

My favorite thing about Penncrest High School was how much a majority of the teachers actually cared about our education. Of course there are others who do the bare minimum or don't care about the students education but overall it was a very fun experience. The art department is especially amazing.

My child was bullied relentlessly at this school. The staff ignored it. The anti-bullying posters and assemblies they have are laughable, as the staff does not care about the safety of the students. If your child is not "popular", then the principal and guidance counselor don't care. They protect th...

My friend and I got bullied here and they didn’t do a thing about it. We reported it to the guidance counselor and even the vice principal and they did nothing. I told another student about it and they told me that the staff would not doing anything unless it got physical. Also numerous things happe...
