There is a shuffle taking place on the Conroe ISD school board after one board member resigned and another selected to serve out the rest of the term.
Scott Moore, currently first vice president on the board, submitted his resignation effective Nov. 14, just after the board election date on Nov. 8.
Current board President Skeeter Hubert was selected to fill the remainder of Moore’s two-year term at the Sept. 20 meeting.
Hubert filed to run in the November election as his term is expiring. However, because his filing was done so incorrectly, he was ineligible to run for another term. Filling the remainder of Moore’s term allows him to remain on the board before being able to run again in 2024.
CISD residents elect trustees to help lead and oversee the district management and evaluate the performance of its Superintendent, according to the Texas Education Agency. The trustees then decide on a president of the board whose job is to conduct the sessions and make sure that the policies created by the board are then implemented in the schools they govern.
Three positions are up for election.
Position 1 has five individuals who filed for the November election: Tiffany Nelson, Ashley Fehrle, Evan Berlin, Serafin Farias and Mike Midler.
Position 2 has two: incumbent Ray Sanders and Melissa Dungan.
Position 3 is unopposed, which will see newcomer Misty Odenweller assume that spot on the board.
All candidate filings are available on the CISD school board website.

SCHOOL RATINGS
The board meeting also included TEA ratings being released. As a whole it was revealed that Conroe ISD was rated an overall 89% and Caney Creek was rated a 77%, or a B.
In the Student Achievement area, Caney Creek earned 79% from its highest score in its graduation rate (95%), post-graduation readiness (81%) and its low score of 69% on STAAR performance.
It also earned a 79% in school progress — measured through academic growth and relative performance.
In Closing the Gaps, it earned a 71%.
Ratings are based on “performance on state standardized tests; graduation rates; and college, career, and military readiness outcomes” as reported by the TEA.
This is the first full accountability rating since the COVID-19 pandemic halted a full rollout of the state’s A-F accountability rating system.

NEXT BOARD MEETING
The next school board meeting will be on Nov. 15.
