The Boerne Independent School District (ISD) held a significant budget workshop meeting on June 9, 2025, where key decisions were made that will impact the local educational landscape. The meeting began with the establishment of a quorum and proceeded into closed session discussions regarding personnel matters and the Aquatics Learning Center project.
Upon reconvening in open session, the board took decisive action on the Aquatics Learning Center project, approving the status and contract, which included delegating authority to the superintendent. This decision is expected to advance the district's commitment to enhancing community recreational facilities, which are vital for student and family engagement.
In addition to project discussions, the board approved routine personnel items, marking a positive step in staffing for the district. Notably, two new principals were introduced: Jessica Schultz for Voss Middle School and Lauren Sanders for Viola Wilson Elementary. Both educators expressed their excitement about their new roles and the opportunity to continue serving the community.
Jessica Schultz, who has been with the district for nine years, highlighted her eagerness to build on her relationships with families at Voss Middle School. Meanwhile, Lauren Sanders, transitioning from Boerne High School, emphasized the importance of foundational education at the elementary level and her commitment to inspiring future leaders.
The meeting concluded with a sense of optimism as the board celebrated the new leadership appointments, reinforcing the district's dedication to fostering a supportive and effective educational environment for all students. As Boerne ISD moves forward, these developments are expected to enhance the quality of education and community involvement in the district.
