Experts and sociologists heap the blame squarely on families.
"Those teens with their black clothes and inverted crosses have ostensibly become a phenomenon in Al-Qunaitara," Professor of Hadith and Islamic Thoughts Dr Hassan Al-Elmi told IOL.
Elmi was a member of a fact-finding committee that visited the school.
He called on families and educationalists to help protect future generations from that danger.
"This is a kind of rebellion against traditions by teenagers, who are making use of state-of-the-art communication technologies," Elmi said.
Sociologist Hassan Koronfol agreed.
"Families have to closely monitor the behavior of their children," he said.
"Moroccan society is paying the price of globalization and liberalization," he added.
He said everyday family burdens with parents struggling to make ends meet are leaving children vulnerable to moral aberration.
Two years ago, security forces in Casablanca busted a Satanist network led by an Egyptian youth.
Local media outlets had previously revealed that homosexuals and Satanists held a concert on the coast of the northern city of Asila.
Similar satanic cases have been revealed in the 1990s in the Arab world, particularly in Egypt and Lebanon.
