Conroe Independent School District (CISD) is drafting a long-term strategic plan to harmonize district goals and boost student results, Superintendent Curtis Null revealed during a recent workshop.
“We have goals, but the missing component has been a strategic plan to unify those efforts,” Null said, recalling earlier delays due to rapid development, bond elections, and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Deputy Superintendent Bethany Medford stressed the district’s present improvement plan tackles specific performance deficiencies but lacks a broader, future-focused strategy. She identified five significant goals for the new plan: student accomplishment and post-secondary success, school leadership and fiscal responsibility, recruitment, development, and retention of staff, a safe and collaborative school culture, and effective instruction.
“These goals hold equal weight and are essential for creating successful campuses and a thriving district,” Medford further shared.
Board President Misty Odenweller recognized literacy as a critical concern, underlining its relevance across all courses. “If you can’t read, you can’t write or succeed in math, science, or history,” she added.
Trustees underlined the need for community engagement in crafting the plan, which attempts to meet district-wide issues and provide clear direction for long-term success. With a focus on teamwork and measurable goals, the plan aspires to ensure every student is ready for academic and personal excellence.

The Conroe City Council approved spending $6 million to buy 12.84 acres for a potential future City Hall. The purchase exceeds city requirements for reserves and cannot proceed without voter approval.

Four longtime Conroe families in the historic Dugan and Madeley Quarter neighborhoods received new mortgage-free homes this week through a federal Community Development Block Grant. The program has rebuilt 86 homes since the 1990s.
