There are many good things about PJP, the academics, the faculty, the resources, and many more. Sometimes the food isn't the best and sometimes there are specific rules that I don't think should be enforced as much as they are. It's very good with school spirit and activities.

The nurse is unprofessional, judgmental, rude, and a poor reflection of her school. She participates with CYO Middle School Volleyball and curses, gets into arguments with opposing coaches, and insults families for being affiliated with certain schools. She is very hateful toward families and yells at the kids.

I enjoyed my experience at Pope John Paul II High School in Royersford Pennsylvania, though I do not recommend it for anyone that is not a practicing Catholic. The education needs to improve though the morals and manners taught in the catholic schooling system are unbeatable.

Terrible. This school made me so anxious that my ability to work on my grades was impossible. And they suffered, so I left before they got worse.
