According to authorities who announced on Tuesday, the Conroe Independent School District Board of Trustees has designated Dr. David Vinson as the sole finalist for the position of superintendent. The decision comes after a three-month search that attracted candidates from throughout Texas and the nation, as stated by the district. The trustees said that Vinson distinguished himself via his leadership record and dedication to student achievement. Vinson presently holds the position of superintendent at Wylie ISD, having directed the North Texas district since 2011. Throughout his tenure, he successfully managed an increase in student enrollment and the expansion of academic programs, garnering accolades for both educational and extracurricular achievements. State legislation requires a 21-day waiting period before the official hiring of a finalist. After that timeframe, the Conroe ISD board is anticipated to cast a vote regarding Vinson’s official appointment. Conroe ISD, one of the rapidly expanding districts in Texas, serves approximately 72,000 students across 70 campuses. Current Superintendent Dr. Curtis Null revealed earlier this year his intention to retire at the conclusion of 2024.
