Victoria County schools enrolled 7,366 students who identified as being at risk during the 2021-22 school year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

This is a 6.3% increase over the previous school year.

Of the 13,894 students enrolled in Victoria County schools, 53% of them are considered to be at risk.

Victoria County had the 51st highest number of at-risk students 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.
