In 2021-22 school year, Hispanic students had highest representation in Travis County County schools

Hs 05

Of the many ethnicities represented in Travis County County schools, Hispanic was the most prevalent ethnicity among Travis County County students in the 2021-22 school year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Of the 188,375 students attending Travis County County schools, 51.4% were Hispanic. White students were the second largest ethnicity, making up 29.2% of Travis County County students.

In the previous school year, Hispanic students still were the most common group in Travis County County, representing 51.3% of the student body.

Carpenter Elementary School had the most even distribution of races among the county schools, including 27.5% white students, 27.3% Hispanic students, 23.5% Black students, 11.7% Asian students, 9.1% Multi-racial students, 0.6% Pacific Islander students, and 0.2% American Indian students.

In the 2021-22 school year, the total number of students enrolled in public schools in the county increased 0.9% when compared to the previous year.

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.
