The Conroe ISD Board of Trustees has approved revised priorities for the 89th Legislative Session, emphasizing school funding, safety, special education, and accountability reforms. Trustees actively engage with lawmakers to advocate for policies supporting students and educators across Texas.
The Conroe ISD Board of Trustees approved an amended list of legislative priorities to handle important problems confronting Texas schools at their January 23 meeting. The changes concentrate on five main areas: Basic Allotment, Special Education Allotment, Safety and Security, Transportation Allotment, and Accountability and Assessment Reform.
Emphasizing the district's will to advocate for teachers and kids, Board President Misty Odenweller said, "The updated priorities reflect our continuous commitment to ensuring the growth and safety of our district while addressing critical challenges in education."
To forward these issues and inspire community people to remain educated, trustees have already started conversations with legislators. The Board of Trustees' webpage provides the whole list of objectives; residents may locate their legislative representatives using the "Who Represents Me?" function.
As early voting kicks off for the May 3 general election, Montgomery County residents—including those in Conroe and Montgomery—are urged to review key deadlines, polling locations, and contested races, including a $480 million road bond proposition.
Montgomery ISD is moving forward with enhanced campus safety measures after its board of trustees approved the purchase of a silent alert system during its April 15 meeting. The wearable technology will enable staff to discreetly notify school officials and emergency responders in real-time during a crisis.
