Open Quote Boyertown elementary school teachers are the meanest I have ever encountered. They will isolate your child form the class they will lie and just bully the kids. Most should in no way be allowed to be teachers to begin with. Kids can and will be difficult they should know this when they decide to teach. The teachers at Boyertown elementary should not be allowed to teach kids under high school age and maybe not even that. Close Quote
