There were 68 white students enrolled in Duval County schools in the 2021-22 school year, 2.9% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Duval County welcomed 2,472 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, white comprised 2.8% of the student body to be the second most represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the nine schools in Duval County, only Freer High School and Norman M. Thomas Elementary School enrolled any white students, welcoming 19 students each in the 2021-22 school year.

Texas is found to be one of the least educated states in the U.S. A study from WalletHub ranked Texas 41st out of 50 states in terms of the quality of the educational system and how successful students were.

More than 5.4 million students are enrolled in public schools across Texas. Nearly one million of them live in rural areas where options for local public schools are few and far between.
