There were eight Pacific Islander students enrolled in Marble Falls ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, the same number as the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Marble Falls ISD schools welcomed 4,014 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Pacific Islander students comprised 0.2% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Marble Falls ISD roughly covers schools within Burnet County and has a main office in Marble Falls.

Among the seven schools in Marble Falls ISD schools, Marble Falls High School recorded the highest enrollment of Pacific Islander students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of six 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.
