Data showed that Presidio County welcomed 1,317 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Asian comprised 1.1% of the student body to be the third most represented ethnicity in the county.
Among the four schools in Presidio County, only Presidio Elementary School and Presidio High School enrolled any Asian students, welcoming five students each in the 2021-22 school year.
Education in Texas is often a hot button issue, especially as test scores lag behind other states.
“The problems commonly cited are flaws in the school financing system, relatively low teacher salary, poor test performance by students…dropouts from traditional schools in favor of charter schools…gun violence, and mental health issues," claimed the Texas Almanac.
