Boyertown parents criticize district’s anti-bullying policies | The Autism News
At the board meeting, parent Stacey Minotto said she has two autistic sons in district schools and has been to the administration four times this month about her seventh-grader being bullied.
When he tried to go to the lunchroom with his classmates he was verbally abused, she told the school board.
Administrators suggested that he eat his lunch in their “safe room.”
“Who’s being victimized here?” she asked. “The student who’s told his opportunity is to be in a safe room? I’m thinking your whole school should be safe.”
Brent and Krista Sandino said that despite the district’s anti-bullying policy, their son is bullied constantly because he has Asperger’s syndrome, a form of autism.
