Data showed that Carson County welcomed 1,141 students during the 2022-23 school year.
Among the six schools in Carson County, Panhandle Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of American Indian students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of three students.
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.
