For the 2026-27 Conroe ISD school year, the district has implemented new learning materials to support student development. On Sept. 16, the CISD board of trustees reviewed an initial report detailing the curriculum integration.
Some context
CISD Deputy Superintendent Ted Landry presented the CISD board with a breakdown of the new instructional material, Savvas Envision + Math, which is being implemented for grades K-12. Campus leads, administrators and department chairs are getting specialized training on how to best support the rollout. Landry said that as of mid-September, both the physical and digital materials had been sent out to ensure readiness and support for the district.
CISD is also in the second year of the Bluebonnet Learning ELAR, or English Language Arts and Reading, program. The program was created by the Texas Education Agency to provide districts with a free internal curriculum that covers 100% of the state reading standards, also known as the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills, or TEKS.
Landry said the district is in the implementation and refinement phase of the program, as teachers deliver feedback and incorporate additional enhancements funded by several grants.
CISD earned grants to fund two educational coursework programs, Coursemojo and Untapped Genius. Coursemojo is an AI-powered teaching tool featuring a personalized assistant named Mojo that gives students support and immediate feedback while correcting misconceptions. The program is in the onboarding phase at 10 campuses across the district.
Untapped Genius was part of the Learning Acceleration Support Opportunities (LASO) grant. According to the LASO website, the purpose of the initiative is to bring in coaches to help improve classroom instruction and build leadership capacity. Landry said the program would be introduced in CISD, supporting the district's administrators as they implement the Bluebonnet Learning ELAR program for grades K-5.
As these programs continue to be implemented, Landry said district officials are looking forward to analyzing the data and feedback they receive from teachers and planning for adjustments if needed.
