Technology committee briefs board on cybersecurity, phone-system and device refresh progress

Boerne Independent School District Board of Trustees · September 19, 2025

Summary

Trustees reported progress on cybersecurity posture, completion of a 2022 bond-funded phone-system refresh, network equipment upgrades tied to E-rate funding and a district-wide device upgrade evaluation; a subcommittee will examine class sets versus 1:1 device models.

The board received an update on technology work Sept. 15 that covered cybersecurity, 2022 bond projects and device planning.

The technology committee reviewed ongoing efforts to enhance the district’s cybersecurity posture and described completion of phone-system replacements funded by the 2022 bond. Committee members said network-equipment refreshes are underway and that E-rate notifications will help offset costs; the presentation cited E-rate support in the “just over half a million dollars” range as part of the funding mix.

The district is also assessing student device needs and formed a subcommittee to study class-set models versus a full 1:1 deployment. Technology leaders reported an initiative to upgrade Windows 10 devices and to assess Windows 11 readiness; the committee scheduled its next meeting for Nov. 4.

Trustees emphasized the importance of cybersecurity and device planning as the district balances bond projects, E-rate funding and classroom instructional needs.
