There were 43 multiracial students enrolled in Central ISD schools in the 2022-23 school year, 10.4% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Central ISD schools welcomed 1,463 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, multiracial students comprised 2.9% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

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

Among the four schools in Central ISD schools, Central Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of multiracial students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 18 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.
