There were two Asian students enrolled in Dekalb ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, the same number as the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Dekalb ISD schools welcomed 783 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Asian students comprised 0.3% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Dekalb ISD roughly covers schools within Bowie County and has a main office in Dekalb.

Among the three schools in Dekalb ISD schools, Dekalb Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of Asian students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of one student.

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.
