Data showed that Titus County welcomed 6,990 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Multiracial comprised 1.9% of the student body to be the fourth least represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the 14 schools in Titus County, Mount Pleasant High School recorded the highest enrollment of Multiracial students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 25 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.
