There were 49 multiracial students enrolled in Buna ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 4.3% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Buna ISD schools welcomed 1,489 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, multiracial students comprised 3.3% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Buna ISD roughly covers schools within Jasper County and has a main office in Buna.

Among the three schools in Buna ISD schools, Buna Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of multiracial students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 25 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.
