There were 59 Asian students enrolled in Aransas County ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 4.8% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Aransas County ISD schools welcomed 3,005 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Asian students comprised 2% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Aransas County ISD roughly covers schools within Aransas County and has a main office in Rockport.

Among the four schools in Aransas County ISD schools, Rockport-Fulton High School recorded the highest enrollment of Asian students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 20 students.

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.
