Data showed that El Paso County welcomed 165,109 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Black comprised 2.2% of the student body to be the third most represented ethnicity in the county.
Among the 239 schools in El Paso County, Andress High School recorded the highest enrollment of Black students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 120 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.
