Marion County schools enrolled 80 students who were identified as being gifted and talented during the 2020-2021 school year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

This is a 20% decrease from the previous school year.

Of the 1,227 students enrolled in Marion County schools, 6.5% of them were considered to be gifted and talented.

Marion County enrolled the 76th lowest number of gifted and talented students among Texas counties.

Texas is found to be one of the least-educated states in the U.S. A study from WalletHub ranked Texas 41st out of 50 states in terms of the quality of the educational system and how successful students were.

More than 5.4 million students are enrolled in public schools across Texas. Nearly one million of them live in rural areas where options for local public schools are few and far between.
