There were 83 white students enrolled in Jeff Davis County schools in the 2022-23 school year, 12.2% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Jeff Davis County welcomed 227 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, white students comprised 36.6% of the student body to be the second most represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the two schools in Jeff Davis County, Ft. Davis School recorded the highest enrollment of white students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 64 students.

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.
