Increased safety and security
Increased safety and security
Boerne ISD, along with the Boerne and Fair Oaks Ranch police departments and the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office, recently agreed to assign each BISD campus with a designated School Resource Officer beginning in the 2022-23 academic year. The collaboration is in an effort to strengthen safety and security measures at all Boerne ISD facilities. The announcement was made during the June board of trustees meeting and recognition was given to the three local law enforcement agencies at that time.
