The educational component
of our programs at Boys Ranch and Girlstown is extremely
important. Our children spend many hours participating
in academic, extra-curricular and vocational training
programs each day, even during the summer. BRISD
provides a wide array of curriculum offerings that are
aligned to ensure that each student has the opportunity to
participate in courses leading to success in college, the
military, and employment. Participation in athletics,
fine arts, or career and technology activities develops
leadership, teamwork, and a solid work ethic.
BRISD was established in
1941 through legislative action. It is considered a
"special purpose" independent school district of Texas,
funded in part through annual contributions from Cal
Farley's and in part through state and federal education
funding mechanisms.
