Data showed that Buna ISD schools welcomed 1,477 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, Hispanic students comprised 3.2% 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.

Texas is found to be one of the least-educated states in the U.S. A study from WalletHub ranked Texas 41st out of 50 states in terms of the quality of the educational system and how successful students were.

More than 5.4 million students are enrolled in public schools across Texas. Nearly one million of them live in rural areas where options for local public schools are few and far between.
