There were 201 Asian students enrolled in Calhoun County schools in the 2021-22 school year, 10.7% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Calhoun County welcomed 3,576 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Asian comprised 5.6% of the student body to be the third most represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the seven schools in Calhoun County, Harrison/Jefferson/Madison Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of Asian students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 73 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.
