Of all the students welcomed in the 2021-22 school year, 50.7% of them were boys, and 49.3% were girls.

Data also shows that the majority of students were Hispanic, representing 93.2% of the San Felipe-Del Rio CISD total enrollment.

San Felipe-Del Rio CISD roughly covers schools within Val Verde County with its main office in Del Rio.

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.
