Of the 2,811 students enrolled in Pecos County schools, 70.5% were considered economically disadvantaged. This is a 6.6% increase over the previous school year.
Pecos County enrolled the 127th highest number of students identified as economically disadvantaged among Texas counties.
The Texas education system is currently torn between public schools and taxpayer-funded private schools.
