Oct Board Meeting 2026

Boerne ISD Board of Trustees meeting, October 26, 2026 (the transcript identifies the meeting as October 20). The board discussed procurement and financial matters, including the purchasing report and workers’ compensation coverage: staff evaluated alternatives and renewed coverage with the prior carrier without increasing the budget, despite a reported $62,000 renewal increase. The board also reviewed quarterly investment earnings of approximately $649,000 and a proposed 2026 refunding of 2017 bonds, which staff estimated could save about $22.6 million in future interest. The board approved the purchasing report and, in a separate motion, approved budget amendments, the donation report, and the tax collection report. Reported donations included $12,000 for the Boerne High School cross-country team and a vehicle for Champion High School’s auto shop program. A juvenile-justice grant is funding a dedicated truancy-prevention position. No vendor contract award or bid approval was identified.

The board also discussed the city’s proposed wastewater fee and district options for managing the added cost. Members considered a resolution requiring background checks for board trustees and candidates; a motion and second were recorded, but the transcript does not capture the vote outcome. Other agenda topics included district performance, student programs, attendance, and academic outcomes.
