This is a 0.5% decrease from the previous school year.

Of the 51,042 students enrolled in Lubbock County schools, 43% of them are considered to be at risk.

Lubbock County had the 20th highest number of at-risk students among Texas counties.

Texas is found to be one of the least-educated states in the U.S. A study from WalletHub ranked Texas 41st out of 50 states in terms of the quality of the educational system and how successful students were.

More than 5.4 million students are enrolled in public schools across Texas. Nearly one million of them live in rural areas where options for local public schools are few and far between.
