Hispanic students comprised the most prevalent ethnic group in Live Oak County schools in the 2023-24 school year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Of the 1,649 students attending Live Oak County schools, 61.1% were Hispanic. White students were the second largest ethnicity, making up 35.9% of the total enrollment.

In the previous school year, Hispanic students also made up the largest ethnic group in Live Oak County, comprising 60.4% of the student body.

George West Elementary School, George West Primary School and Three Rivers Junior/Senior High School had the most diverse student body in Live Oak County, including white, American Indian, Black, Asian, Hispanic, Pacific Islander, and multiracial.

When compared to the previous school year, total public school enrollment in the county dropped 1.1%.

“As a result, many districts in our very own Central Texas region are being forced to cut back on essential programs, services, consider school closures, and adopt deficit budgets just to provide students with the education that they deserve,” Hutto ISD Trustee James Matlock said.
