There were three multiracial students enrolled in Floyd County schools in the 2022-23 school year, 25% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Floyd County welcomed 1,089 students during the 2022-23 school year.

Among the seven schools in Floyd County, A. B. Duncan Collegiate Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of multiracial students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of three 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.
