There were 16 multiracial students enrolled in Industrial ISD schools in the 2022-23 school year, the same number as the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Industrial ISD schools welcomed 1,188 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, multiracial students comprised 1.3% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Industrial ISD roughly covers schools within Jackson County and has a main office in Vanderbilt.

Among the four schools in Industrial ISD schools, Industrial Elementary East recorded the highest enrollment of multiracial students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of six 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.
