There were 56 Pacific Islander students enrolled in Taylor County schools in the 2021-22 school year, 9.7% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Taylor County welcomed 37,417 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Pacific Islander comprised 0.1% of the student body to be the least represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the 79 schools in Taylor County, Dyess Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of Pacific Islander students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of seven students.

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.
