Reading the New Caney numbers
New Caney ISD tops the table at 1.255% — though by only about $2 a year over Splendora ISD on a $300,000 home. The two adopted the same 0.500% for debt service and adopted operations rates so close that the two render identically at three decimals, so treat them as one price point at the top of the county. What that price point means: $1,361 a year more than Richards ISD at the bottom, and $917 more than Conroe ISD, the district a New Caney-area buyer is most likely to be comparing against.
Every other school district in the county charges less than New Caney ISD for 2025. The furthest, Richards ISD at 0.801%, is $1,361 a year cheaper at $300,000 assessed.
