There were 28 African American students enrolled in La Vernia ISD schools in the 2022-23 school year, 17.6% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that La Vernia ISD schools welcomed 3,515 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, African American students comprised 0.8% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

La Vernia ISD roughly covers schools within Wilson County and has a main office in La Vernia.

Among the four schools in La Vernia ISD schools, La Vernia Primary School recorded the highest enrollment of African American students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 11 students.

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.
