There were 1,102 Multiracial students enrolled in Bowie County schools in the 2021-22 school year, 5% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Bowie County welcomed 17,408 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Multiracial comprised 6.3% of the student body to be the fourth least represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the 43 schools in Bowie County, Texas High School recorded the highest enrollment of Multiracial students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 76 students.

The Texas education system is currently torn between public schools and taxpayer-funded private schools.

Critics argue that private schools use funds that should go to the public school system, while private school advocates claim they’re offering better education for more Texas students.
