There were four Pacific Islander students enrolled in Huntington ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 100% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Huntington ISD schools welcomed 1,615 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Pacific Islander students comprised 0.2% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Huntington ISD roughly covers schools within Angelina County and has a main office in Huntington.

Among the five schools in Huntington ISD schools, Huntington Middle School recorded the highest enrollment of Pacific Islander students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of two 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.
