Data showed that Bailey County welcomed 1,347 students during the 2022-23 school year.
Dillman Elementary School was the only school in the county to enroll an American Indian student, with just one student identified in the 2022-23 school year.
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.
