It’s Friday July 26th. 

And born on this date in 1943 - John Lennon called him The Phantom, and Keith Richards called him Her Majesty - Mick Jagger turns 81 years old today.  And in Texas History the first president of the Republic of Texas died at the age of 70 on this date in 1863. Sam Houston - while famous for winning the battle at San Jacinto, lost his battle with Pneumonia at his home in Huntsville.

During the hottest months of the year, animals suffer as much from the heat as humans. Because of this, Boerne Animal Care Services has partnered with the Boerne Police and Fire Departments to provide emergency go bags when encountering an animal in need. Our friends over at Fetch and Friskers on Main Street were able to provide much needed supplies to make the go bags a reality, we’re talking water bottles, bowls, leashes, treats and food. In total, 30 bags were made and distributed to be placed in squad cars and fire trucks. 

Don’t forget that tomorrow is the Boerne ISD Back to School Resource Rally, which will benefit the District’s students in need. The event will take place at the Boerne ISD Central Office in room 135 from 9 to noon and will allow students to sign up for the resources they need this year. A Job Fair will also be taking place tomorrow at the central office during this time, so if you are looking for a career within the District for jobs like Transportation, Custodial Services, substitute teachers, food service, and maintenance you will be able to speak to administration and apply. 

Throughout the months of June and July, Boerne ISD has hosted seven training sessions for multiple Law Enforcement agencies across the state. Active Attack Integrated Response was the focus for the month of June and allowed over 100 attendees to review and practice life saving techniques during critical incidents. Then in July, Boerne ISD hosted Law Enforcement Rapid Response training for 20 agencies in the state, fulfilling its duty as the regional host for ALERRT.
