About Children in Santa’s Dreams
The Conroe ISD Police Department has founded a Christmas program dedicated to less fortunate children in the Conroe Independent School District. The need criteria for this program is based on personal references from counselors, teachers, principals, and other school staff who work with children every day. Counselors work with parents and CISD Police in order to maintain the anonymity of our less fortunate children. Children in Santa’s Dreams provides gifts and stockings for our children enrolled in school and their siblings who may be too young to attend school. Citizens, service organizations, and youth organizations are invited to participate by donating new, unwrapped gifts. The number of gifts each child receives is determined by the amount of donations and number of students referred by the program. In past years, 1-3 gifts per child have been given, with the addition of one game per family.
