There were 35 multiracial students enrolled in Colorado ISD schools in the 2022-23 school year, 12.9% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Colorado ISD schools welcomed 949 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, multiracial students comprised 3.7% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Colorado ISD roughly covers schools within Mitchell County and has a main office in Colorado City.

Among the three schools in Colorado ISD schools, Colorado Elementary and Middle School recorded the highest enrollment of multiracial students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 32 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.
