Students must wear uniforms and follow a strict behavioral code, and both parents and students alike are required to get an amount of validated community service hours.
Pennington has won a number of awards and recognition over the years, including a School-to-Watch designation. Pennington has also received the "School of Excellence Award" almost annually since the early 2000s.
Pennington accepts students based on a lottery. About 200 students apply every year, and about 120 are admitted. Most recruits are accepted through the first grade, where 75 openings are available. [3]
Despite lacking an athletic program, Pennington provides clubs such as Intramurals and the Running Club to students who want to be involved in extracurricual physical activities, and a vast selection of other clubs such as Battle of the Books, Chess, Creative Writing, Foreign Language, Girl Scouts, Good News Club, Junior Robotics, Math Counts, Math Rocks, Muslim Student Association, Robotics, Stitching Club, and Yearbook among others.
The school has gotten fairly positive reviews on Facebook (4/5) and Great Schools (5/5), while former students blast Pennington via Google (2/5).
