Test 09

Potter County enrolled 23,124 students in the 2020-2021 school year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

This is 12,988 fewer than the year before.

Potter County was ranked 45th in enrollment among Texas counties.

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.
