What New Oak Ridge High School does

Oak Ridge High School (ORHS) is a public secondary-education institution operated by Conroe Independent School District (CISD), a Texas governmental entity established in 1892. The school runs a dual-campus model in Conroe, Texas: a main campus serving grades 10-12 at 27330 Oak Ridge School Road under Principal Nina Norman, and a dedicated 9th Grade Campus at 27310 Oak Ridge School Road under Principal Barbara Solberg. It sits within the Oak Ridge feeder zone, drawing students from a network of designated elementary and intermediate schools (Irons Junior High, Vogel Intermediate, and seven elementary campuses). CISD is the 7th largest district in Texas and 49th largest in the U.S., enrolling approximately 73,000 students across 73 campuses and covering a 348-square-mile area across The Woodlands, Shenandoah, Oak Ridge North, Conroe, and Grangerland. ORHS reports a 97.2% graduation rate, ranking among the highest in Texas.

The institution delivers a comprehensive academic, athletic, and fine-arts program: 6,792 dual-credit enrollments and 20,875 college credit hours earned by students in 2023-24, plus 8,000+ AP exams passed by 5,563 students generating nearly 24,000 college hours. Career and Technical Education spans 13 clusters and 29 programs of study and earned the inaugural CTE District of Distinction designation (2024). Athletics have produced 9 UIL 6A Lone Star Cup awards, and the district holds a Texas Art Education Association District of Distinction designation (since 2022) and 12-time Best Communities for Music Education recognition. District-wide technology infrastructure is operational (Knowledge Base, system-status monitoring, parent portal, mobile apps on iOS and Android) but does not include disclosed AI capabilities.

Financially, ORHS is tuition-free and funded through a $0.9496 property tax rate (among the lowest in the Houston metro), state funding under TEA formulas, and voter-approved bond proceeds. Bond 2023 — Prop A ($1.2B), Prop B ($40M), and Prop C ($112.9M), totaling roughly $1.35B — passed in November 2023 and includes Oak Ridge feeder zone facility projects. The district has held a Texas School FIRST 'A' Superior Achievement rating (98/100 points) for 23 consecutive years and was the first Texas district to receive all four Transparency Stars (11 consecutive years). Oak Ridge High School itself is not privately owned and has no traditional revenue or capital structure; it is a government-administered public school under CISD governance.
