Year over year, Boerne ISD students continue to perform at higher testing percentages when compared to regional and statewide numbers. On Jan. 20, the board of trustees reviewed the annual report for the 2024-25 school year, highlighting student preparedness, graduation rates and test scores. The details Chief Instructional Officer Larissa Flores said attendance and graduation rates are up, with a graduation rate of 98.4%. Report shows increase in BISD test scores
When comparing test scores from the State of Texas Assess- ments of Academic Readiness, or STAAR, Boerne ISD students in 2024-25 held similar scores to students in 2023-24. While there was a 1% reduction in students who “meet” STAAR test results, the district continues to perform around 15% better than the state average in all categories. One metric measured by the state is college, career and military readiness, or CCMR, which indicates student prepared- ness post graduation. Between 2023-24 and 2024-25, around 5% more Boerne ISD students were identified as prepared, bringing the total to 95%. The regional per- centage was 72%, while the state percentage was 82%, according to the annual report.
