Calhoun County enrolled 3,681 students in the 2020-2021 school year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

This is 159 fewer than the year before.

Calhoun County was ranked 116th in enrollment among Texas counties.

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.
