Data showed that Skidmore-Tynan ISD schools welcomed 786 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Hispanic students comprised 71% of the student body to be one of the most represented ethnicities in the district.

Skidmore-Tynan ISD roughly covers schools within Bee County and has a main office in Skidmore.

Among the three schools in Skidmore-Tynan ISD schools, Skidmore-Tynan Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of Hispanic students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 267 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.
