There were 45,517 Hispanic students enrolled in Nueces County schools in the 2022-23 school year, 1.2% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Nueces County welcomed 59,672 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, Hispanic students comprised 76.3% of the student body to be the most represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the 113 schools in Nueces County, School of Science and Technology Corpus Christi recorded the highest enrollment of Hispanic students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 1,761 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.
