You should contact the Office of Children & Youth directly (610-278-5800), or talk to your school's counselor immediately. By the time emancipation proceedings occur, you'll most likely be 18 anyway. Your best bet is to get immediate help, and you need to ask for it -- like you're doing now, but in person to someone.
It saddens me that you're in such an environment and I hope it gets better soon. It sounds like you're on the right track. Don't give up, and keep at it! Best of luck to you.
