Data showed that Karnes County welcomed 2,433 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, American Indian comprised 0.1% of the student body to be the least represented ethnicity in the county.
Among the 11 schools in Karnes County, only Karnes City High School and Karnes City Junior High School enrolled any American Indian students, welcoming one student each in the 2021-22 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.
