Conroe ISD has officially launched its search for a new superintendent following the departure of Dr. Curtis Null. A robust, community-driven hiring process is now underway, with a final vote on a new leader expected this fall.
Conroe ISD has officially launched its search for a new superintendent following the June 17 approval of its Superintendent Search Plan by the district’s board of trustees.
The move comes after Superintendent Curtis Null announced his departure to lead Lake Travis ISD, with Ted Landry stepping in as interim superintendent as of May 19.
The district has partnered with Texans for Excellence in Education (TEE) to lead the recruitment process. According to a district news release, the superintendent position was posted on June 18, with the application deadline set for July 18 at 5 p.m. The board plans to name a lone finalist in August and vote to hire the new leader by September.
As part of the search, TEE will host four in-person community forums and distribute surveys to students, families, staff, and residents to gather input through the summer. “The board is looking forward to a transparent and thorough process,” said Board First Vice President Tiffany Baumann Nelson.
TEE President John Petree added that the firm is confident the process will produce top-tier candidates to lead the growing district.
