There were 147 Hispanic students enrolled in Shiner ISD schools in the 2022-23 school year, 7.3% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Shiner ISD schools welcomed 724 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, Hispanic students comprised 20.3% of the student body to be one of the most represented ethnicities in the district.

Shiner ISD roughly covers schools within Lavaca County and has a main office in Shiner.

Education in Texas is often a hot button issue, especially as test scores lag behind other states.

"The problems commonly cited are flaws in the school financing system, relatively low teacher salary, poor test performance by students... dropouts from traditional schools in favor of charter schools... gun violence, and mental health issues," claimed the Texas Almanac.
