There were two Pacific Islander students enrolled in Chisum ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Chisum ISD schools welcomed 1,145 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Pacific Islander students comprised 0.2% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Chisum ISD roughly covers schools within Lamar County and has a main office in Paris.

Among the three schools in Chisum ISD schools, Chisum High School recorded the highest enrollment of Pacific Islander 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.
