Dr. Price will remain Superintendent until the next Superintendent is named and transitions into the district. At that point, Dr. Price will remain an employee of the school district until June 2024 to assist with the transition of leadership. Dr. Price said, “I love serv ing the students, staff, and parents of Boerne ISD. It has been the highest honor of my career working with everyone in this wonderful community, but now I am looking forward to focusing on my family. I enjoy supporting our BISD families, but many times I have missed milestones in my own family. Now, I want to be able to enjoy spending time with my wife, Donna, my children, and future grandchildren.”

“I believe seven years is the right amount of time to stay at the helm of an organization like ours. I am very proud of the work we have accomplished over the past several years. I am especially proud of how our students, staff, and parents pulled together during the COVID pandemic to make sure everyone was not only safe, but that together we were able to close the learning gap caused by the pandemic’’, said Superintendent Price.

Dr. Price says that school success has been all about working together as a team.

“I have been blessed to work with wonderful people at Boerne ISD. Our teachers, leadership team, parents, and school board deserve all the credit for working together as a team for the success of our students. BISD continues to be a destination district and is in excellent shape going forward and I am confident BISD will continue to accomplish great things in the future. I believe new leadership and a new perspective will build on our legacy of success, and bring new ideas to the table.”

Speaking on behalf of the BISD Board of Trustees, Board President Carlin Friar praised the superintendent for his ability to build a strong culture of collaboration both within the district and between the district and the community.

“On behalf of the Board, we highly value the progress made in our school system under Superintendent Price’s leadership. Dr. Price has been a tireless visionary for Boerne ISD for the past seven years. Along with the Board, Dr. Price has focused BISD and its stakeholders on identifying and developing the strengths and gifts of every child. This vision culminated in the single focused goal for all of our students to achieve success beyond high school graduation.”

During Dr. Price’s tenure as Boerne ISD Superintendent, the district has grown by nearly 3,000 students to almost 11,000. He oversaw the opening of three new campuses, as well as the passage of the 2022 Bond that will result in Elementary School #8 opening in 2024, along with additions at both high schools, renovations at other campuses, and other facility updates needed for a fast growth district.
