I went to Boyertown Area School District my whole life growing up. The teachers there are very helpful and very well qualified for their jobs. The students there are super great as well. They have programs that helped to get students ready for college or life after high school, which is important.

My overall experience at my high school was good, but I believe that's because of all the effort I put in outside of school to keep up with the course work. The science and math teachers are extremely lacking but my other teachers were very good.

I like how a lot of AP and DE classes are offered and I found most of the teachers to be friendly, fair, and good at teaching. The portion sizes for food were fairly small compared to what I eat at home regularly and what I imagine my brother to eat when he becomes a teenager. A lot of the students at the school have shown to be bigoted to various diversity groups such as the LGBTQ, which I think should be improved on. The guidance counselors have been great and have supported me in my journey to graduate during my junior year. (hence why I put down senior, I am a senior in all but name in the school's system).

This change is going to lower grade, and make student emotional state worse. The removal of open campus...

I didn't realize what an amazing high school I went to until I got older. I graduated from Boyertown High School, got my BA at Temple University and now live in Colorado with an amazing job and can afford an awesome lifestyle. Thanks Boyertown Senior High for putting me on the path to succeed.

Graduates are well manner, considerate and the majority go on to college. Facilities are a bit aged compared to other district but that is starting to be remedied particularly with the rebuild of the highschool

Well firstly, I must agree that the school does have a wide variety of activities. But the rest of the school is horrible. The phys ed is excessive as we probably exercise more than adults do, the homework is ridiculous as if our life has to revolve entirely around school and nothing else. To add on...
