There were 24 Multiracial students enrolled in Uvalde County schools in the 2021-22 school year, 20% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Uvalde County welcomed 5,140 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Multiracial comprised 0.5% of the student body to be the fourth least represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the 13 schools in Uvalde County, only Sabinal Elementary School and Uvalde Dual Language Academy enrolled any Multiracial students, welcoming four students each in the 2021-22 school year.

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.
