There were 23 Black students enrolled in Crosby County schools in the 2021-22 school year, 35.3% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Crosby County welcomed 1,052 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 eight schools in Crosby County, Lorenzo ISD recorded the highest enrollment of Black students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 12 students.

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.
