There were 74 Multiracial students enrolled in Jones County schools in the 2021-22 school year, 3.9% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Jones County welcomed 2,658 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Multiracial comprised 2.8% of the student body to be the fourth least represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the 13 schools in Jones County, Hamlin Collegiate Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of Multiracial students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 17 students.

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.
