There were 11 Hispanic students enrolled in Burkeville ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, the same number as the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Burkeville ISD schools welcomed 232 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Hispanic students comprised 4.7% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Burkeville ISD roughly covers schools within Newton County and has a main office in Burkeville.

Burkeville School was the only school in the district which enrolled Hispanic students, welcoming 11 students in the 2021-22 school year.

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.
