Sulphur Springs ISD had the highest enrollment among Hopkins County districts, welcoming 4,361 students during the 2022-23 academic year, according to the Texas Education Agency report.

Out of the total students welcomed in the 2022-23 school year, 51.7% of them were boys, and 48.3% were girls.

Data also showed that most of the students were white, representing 53.5% of the Sulphur Springs ISD total enrollment.

Among the seven districts in Hopkins County, Como-Pickton CISD ranked second in enrollment numbers with 734 students, while North Hopkins ISD welcomed 516 students and ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

Sulphur Springs ISD roughly covers schools within Hopkins County with its main office in Sulphur Springs.

In the previous school year, Sulphur Springs ISD had the highest number of students among Hopkins County districts.

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.

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.
