Polk County enrolled 28,269 students in the 2022-2023 school year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

This is 2,675 more than the year before.

Polk County was ranked 40th in enrollment among Texas counties.

The Texas education system is currently torn between public schools and taxpayer-funded private schools.

Critics argue that private schools use funds that should go to the public school system, while private school advocates claim they’re offering better education for more Texas students.
