Clyde CISD had the highest enrollment among Callahan County districts, welcoming 1,440 students during the 2022-23 academic year, according to the Texas Education Agency report.

Out of the total students welcomed in the 2022-23 school year, 53.5% of them were boys, and 46.5% were girls.

Data also showed that most of the students were white, representing 77.8% of the Clyde CISD total enrollment.

Among the four districts in Callahan County, Eula ISD ranked second in enrollment numbers with 474 students, while Cross Plains ISD welcomed 377 students and ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

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.

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.
