Based on results from the spring 2026 State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness, Conroe ISD outperformed statewide testing for the second year in a row, according to the June 10 results, while test scores within the district itself are lower in comparison to last year. What’s changed CISD was
Key takeaway While CISD outperformed the state across all reported grade levels in math, reading and social studies, CISD recorded lower internal scores in 2026 compared to 2025.
Why this matters in Willis
The Conroe ISD's outperformance of statewide testing results is notable, especially given the district's proximity to Willis and the shared educational landscape in Montgomery County. As neighboring school districts, Conroe ISD and Willis ISD often compare notes and best practices, and Conroe's success may inform strategies for improvement in Willis. The decline in internal scores within Conroe ISD, however, may also resonate with Willis ISD, which faces similar challenges in balancing academic achievement with student engagement and distractions. The mention of Texas House Bill 1481 and its potential impact on student focus is particularly relevant, as both Conroe and Willis ISD have likely grappled with the effects of cell phone use on campus. As Willis ISD reviews its own test scores and instructional approaches, it may look to Conroe ISD's experience with the cell phone ban as a potential model for improving student outcomes.
