Upcoming News
- Run the Gauntlet- It is RTG Week! We look forward to your participation and joining us next Friday, November 8 for an amazing day! Please see notes below from the PTO for more detailed information.
- Parent Surveys- Boerne ISD invites you to take our School Quality Survey. This survey asks for feedback about school operations and the education we provide students. Questions address educational quality, academic preparation, student support, safety and behavior, and school leadership, among other topics.
If the district has your current email address on file, you should have received a personal invitation and survey link when the survey launched. If you need assistance with the link please contact our office.
The survey is available in both English and Spanish. You have until November 20, to share your feedback. Students in grades 3–12 are also participating in the survey.
The district partnered with independent research and communications firm K12 Insight to administer the survey and compile the results. Your responses are strictly confidential. No one at Boerne ISD can connect you to your answers. Please see the Boerne ISD website for FAQs and thank you for your feedback and participation. We value and appreciate your input.
