Post Elementary School had the highest enrollment among Garza County schools, welcoming 341 students during the 2022-23 academic year, according to the Texas Education Agency report.

Of all the students welcomed in the 2022-23 school year, 51.3% of the students were girls, and 48.7% were boys.

Data also showed that the majority of students were Hispanic, representing 63.3% of the Post Elementary School total enrollment.

Among the four schools in Garza County, Post High School ranked second in enrollment numbers with 217 students, while Post Middle School welcomed 183 students and ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

Post Elementary School is a part of Post ISD, which roughly covers schools within Garza County with its main office in Post.

In the previous school year, Post Elementary School also had the highest number of students among Garza County schools.

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.

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.
