There were 22,214 Black students enrolled in Travis County schools in the 2021-22 school year, 1.9% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Travis County welcomed 190,179 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Black comprised 11.7% of the student body to be the third most represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the 323 schools in Travis County, KIPP Zenith Academy recorded the highest enrollment of Black students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 658 students.

Texas is found to be one of the least educated states in the U.S. A study from WalletHub ranked Texas 41st out of 50 states in terms of the quality of the educational system and how successful students were.

More than 5.4 million students are enrolled in public schools across Texas. Nearly one million of them live in rural areas where options for local public schools are few and far between.
