Boerne ISD early childhood scores, goals soar

As Boerne Independent School District trustees Monday approved adopting legislative education goals, officials reported early childhood scores are above state averages across the board.

Figures show the district trending double-digits, educators added. Renee Munn, director of early childhood learning, led a brief review of the BISD’s efforts to achieve, and excel, in early childhood learning areas.

“Our proposed early literacy goals (are) to increase performance from 75% to 80% over the next five years,” Munn said. In comparison, “The state benchmark is currently set at 60% and the state has not yet reached that target.”
