Data showed that Pecos County welcomed 2,811 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Pacific Islander comprised 0.1% of the student body to be the least represented ethnicity in the county.
Among the nine schools in Pecos County, only Fort Stockton Alamo Elementary School and Fort Stockton High School enrolled any Pacific Islander students, welcoming one student 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.
