Started out great but I er the tests has quickly become a sports driven school. The faculty qualifications are much lower than in the past and it feels like a sports coach takes priority over a qualified teacher. If your child isn't sporty, this isn't the place for them.

Over my time here at the Perkiomen School, I've experienced bullying and harassment for being different, the Perkiomen School does NOT care about the arts, or the art building, as well as very expensive pianos around campus, letting kids carve things into them without repercussions, as well they are so poorly maintained they are literally sticky. They arts building (kehs) looks like it's not being taken care of or cleaned at that, overall I would NOT recommend that you go here if you like art..

The school is warm and welcoming. They know the meaning of community. When I asked the students what they appreciated most, many if them quickly spoke of the school's diversity. They enjoy making connections with kids around the US and around the world.

The AP classes offered here are numberous, and the student life is amazing as the campus...

What a fantastic year this has been for our child who is in the second year at Perk Middle School. We could not be happier with the program, people, and opportunities. Reading some of the negative comments here, we were a bit worried, but experiencing the school ourselves has told us that those nega...
