The Conroe ISD board has unanimously selected Ted Landry as interim superintendent, marking a key step in the district’s leadership transition.

In a special meeting convened on May 19, the Conroe Independent School District board of trustees unanimously decided to appoint Ted Landry as interim superintendent.
Landry, the current principal of The Woodlands High School, boasts over thirty years of experience in public education. Recently appointed as deputy superintendent of Humble ISD, he is set to assume his new role in June, as confirmed by the district. Before starting his educational career, Landry was a member of the U.S. Marine Corps.
In a statement released on May 20, Landry expressed deep gratitude for the opportunity to serve as interim superintendent of Conroe ISD. “I have valued my experience at The Woodlands High School and am eager to continue serving the Conroe ISD community.”
The board reviewed 12 candidates for the interim position. Trustees expressed strong confidence in Landry’s leadership and highlighted his extensive service to the district.
According to a joint statement released today, the board has officially announced the appointment of one of its own as interim superintendent. “With the arrival of this new season, there is a palpable excitement as we advance collectively, reinforcing our dedication to excellence.”
Landry was appointed after the announcement that Curtis Null, the current Superintendent, is the sole finalist for the Lake Travis ISD superintendent position. This decision was made during a special meeting of the LTISD board on May 1.
Conroe Independent School District will convene for a special board meeting on May 29 at 1 p.m. The agenda will focus on conducting interviews and selecting a firm to assist in the search for a permanent superintendent. The board will also deliberate on the potential posting of a new chief of staff position in the upcoming days.
