There were 29 Asian students enrolled in Paris ISD schools in the 2022-23 school year, 26.1% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Paris ISD schools welcomed 3,856 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, Asian students comprised 0.8% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

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

Among the eight schools in Paris ISD schools, Aikin Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of Asian students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 10 students.

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.
