    Interstate Compact

    Texas participates in the Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunities for Military Children.

    The Department of Defense provides tool kits for military families that explain the rights and resources involved in the Compact on the DoD Interstate Compact webpage.

    The Military Interstate Children’s Compact Commission (MIC3) provides information to military families that may prove useful in navigating transitions from one assignment to another, as well as resources around educational rights and resources. Visit the MIC3 website (www.mic3.net) or download a copy of the MIC3 “A Military Family’s Guide to School Transitions.”

     

     

    Post-Service Information

    We know that so many military families, after they have completed their service, continue to want to serve and play a role in their communities. Boerne ISD has a wide variety of volunteer opportunities, and we welcome your contact. We will gladly help you identify roles in our school community that can help meet your personal needs. Also, don’t forget to check the BoerneISD Volunteers Page for opportunities that may be of interest if you are transitioning out of active service.
