BOERNE — Boerne ISD Superintendent Kristin Craft, Ed.D., has completed the Holdsworth Center’s highly competitive 18-month Superintendent Leadership Program.
The Holdsworth Center, founded by H-E-B Chairman Charles Butt, is dedicated to strengthening public education across the state of Texas. The Superintendent Leadership Program invites a small cohort of new superintendents to receive intensive training from veteran superintendents and experts in public education.
Craft, who started with Boerne ISD in January 2024, was one of only 10 superintendents selected to participate. She spent the past 18 months collaborating, learning and engaging with experts and mentors who can help her lead our district and influence longterm success.
“I am so grateful to the Holdsworth Center for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” Craft said. “It was incredible to learn alongside other superintendents who put students and staff at the center of every decision they make.
“Holdsworth provides a unique perspective on the work we do, and I am honored to have been part of this program,” Craft added.
Members of the Boerne ISD board of trustees were invited to join her for personalized, in-depth training at Holdsworth. The School Board Institute prepares boards to work together more fluidly and to put stakeholder needs at the forefront of their efforts.
Craft’s leadership team was also invited to a retreat in June 2025 at the Holdsworth Center. The team was challenged to re-envision their approach to their work and came away with renewed focus and opportunities for stronger collaboration.
Under Craft’s leadership, the district passed its first-ever voter-approved tax ratification election, achieved its fifth and sixth consecutive A-ratings from TEA, launched the P-TECH Health Sciences pathway, and reached 99% graduation and 95% CCMR rate.
