I was bullied at this school to the point where it still affects me to this day. i have constant fear that people are laughing at me and making fun of me solely because of the way i was treated at penncrest. the whole class was a joke and terrible people with no grip on reality, no remorse, no empathy, and the administration is the same exact way. try dealing with getting spit on in front of hundreds of students laughing at you and the school does literally nothing about it. I actually got talked to because the girl accused me of saying something i did not say. and she didn't get in trouble at all. not even joking. she was in school the next day and i heard people talking about how she didn't get in trouble and laughing about it. there were so many rumors spread about me and the staff just turns a blind eye unless you're popular. i was told "something else will happen next year and you'll forget all about it" well i still haven't forgotten. and i don't think i ever will. thanks

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.

Both of my kids have gone through all RTMSD schools from kindergarten on (Media, SLMS, and PHS). They have thrived with excellent teachers and staff, challenging classes, phenomenal extracurricular activities especially for theater, and a good group of kids for friends. It’s a close knit community w...

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...
