What Boyertown Area High School does

Boyertown Area School District (BASD) is a public K-12 school district and political subdivision of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, formed in 1953 as a jointure and serving approximately 6,100 students across nine school buildings within a roughly 100-square-mile footprint spanning Berks and Montgomery counties in southeastern Pennsylvania. The district operates one senior high school (Boyertown Area Senior High / BASH, grades 9-12), two middle schools (East and West, grades 6-8), and six elementary schools (grades K-5), plus Pre-K Counts classrooms and the BASD Virtual Academy for online K-12 instruction. Curriculum is anchored on a Portrait of a Graduate framework emphasizing Communication, Critical Thinking, Collaboration, and Creativity, supported by Pennsylvania-aligned assessment systems (PSSA, DIBELS, NWEA MAP, Keystone Exams) and Eureka Math at the elementary level. Specialized programs include Autistic Support, Emotional Support, Learning Support, Life Skills Support, Gifted, Early Intervention, English Language Development, athletics, and fine arts; over 90% of students rely on district-provided bus transportation.

BASD's revenue model is government-funded rather than commercial: the district is financed through local property taxes, state allocations from the Pennsylvania Department of Education, and federal grants, with annual budgets approved by the Board of School Directors. There is no tuition, no commercial customer base, and no pricing model in the traditional sense — public K-12 education is provided free of charge to district residents, while Pre-K Counts is offered at no cost to families earning up to 300% of the federal poverty level. Governance is via a Board of School Directors and an administrative leadership team headed by Superintendent Scott Davidheiser. The district holds distinctive credentials including being the first in Pennsylvania designated a No Place for Hate district by the Anti-Defamation League (since 2006), and is affiliated with IB World School, International Spanish Academy, EARCOS, and JCIS. The 2025-2030 Strategic Plan 'Future Ready by Design', developed with over 100 stakeholders and approved on June 24, 2025, plus the 2026-2029 Comprehensive Plan approved March 24, 2026, guide current priorities across curriculum, finance and facilities, student services, technology, and community relations.
