Data showed that Westhoff ISD schools welcomed 81 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, African American students comprised 6.2% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Westhoff Elementary School was the only school in the district which enrolled African American students, welcoming five students in the 2022-23 school year.

The Texas education system is currently torn between public schools and taxpayer-funded private schools.

Critics argue that private schools use funds that should go to the public school system, while private school advocates claim they’re offering better education for more Texas students.
