There were 64 Asian students enrolled in Palacios ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 12.3% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Palacios ISD schools welcomed 1,322 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Asian students comprised 4.8% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Palacios ISD roughly covers schools within Matagorda County and has a main office in Palacios.

Among the four schools in Palacios ISD schools, Palacios High School recorded the highest enrollment of Asian students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 28 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.
