Congratulations to Conroe ISD for being granted TIA system approval for the 2024-2025 school year by the Texas Education Agency, TEA.

Teachers with an active National Board certification may be designated as Recognized by the Texas Education Agency (TEA).
Once a teacher is designated, they may generate an annual allotment for their employing school district based on their campus of employment for five continuous years.
