Montgomery County, TX, April 13, 2021 – Montgomery County Food Bank today announced  that Dr. Curtis Null, Superintendent of Schools for Conroe Independent School District (CISD),  has been elected to Montgomery County Food Bank’s (MCFB) Board of Directors. The addition  of Dr. Null brings the size of MCFB’s Board of Directors to 19 members.

MCFB actively partners with CISD to provide nutritious, kid-friendly food to CISD students who  are identified as at-risk for hunger through its Backpack Buddy Program and school food  pantries. MCFB’s Backpack Buddy Program provides these students with bags of food to take  home on Fridays so they do not go hungry on the weekends.

“We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Null to the Montgomery County Food Bank family,” said Kristine  Marlow, MCFB’s President and CEO. “It is a blessing to elect such a highly respected  Montgomery County education leader to our board of directors.

I am  honored to join the board of directors and look forward to maintaining the great relationship  that has been established between Conroe ISD and the food bank.” 

Dr. Null holds a bachelor’s degree from the University of Houston, master’s degree from the  University of Florida and doctorate from the University of Houston. Dr. Null and his wife, Tanya  Null, who teaches prekindergarten in CISD, reside in Conroe, Texas with their two children.
