Of the 1,339 students enrolled in Martin County schools, 45.7% were considered economically disadvantaged. This is an 8.8% decrease from the previous school year.
Martin County enrolled the 53rd lowest number of students identified as economically disadvantaged among Texas counties.

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.
