In the previous school year, white students also made up the largest ethnic group in Motley County, comprising 71.3% of the student body.

Motley County School had the most diverse student body in Motley County, including white, American Indian, Black, Asian, Hispanic, Pacific Islander, and multiracial.

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.

Underfunding is a frequently cited challenge facing the state's school district. Per-pupil funding has not increased since 2019, despite inflation rates rising by more than 20% since then.
