Boerne has no shortage of great places to grab lunch, but a few sandwiches have earned legendary status. From spicy chicken and stacked barbecue to classic deli favorites and over-the-top comfort food, we've rounded up seven local sandwiches that are absolutely worth the trip.

Whether you're craving something messy, spicy, nostalgic, or big enough to share, this list has something for every appetite. It might even help answer that age-old question: "Where should we eat today?"

As students head back to class, School Resource Officers (SROs) are preparing right alongside them. Every Boerne ISD campus is served by a dedicated officer who has completed specialized training to help keep students and staff safe while also serving as mentors and trusted role models throughout the school year.

Beyond emergency preparedness, these officers lead programs on internet safety, self-defense, drug and alcohol prevention, and youth mentorship, helping build strong relationships both inside and outside the classroom.
