Data showed that Colorado County welcomed 3,543 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, American Indian comprised 0.1% of the student body to be the second least represented ethnicity in the county.
Among the 14 schools in Colorado County, Weimar Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of American Indian students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of three students each.
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.
