Andrews High School had the highest enrollment among Andrews County schools, welcoming 1,161 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, 52.8% of them were boys, and 47.2% were girls.

Data also showed that the majority of students were Hispanic, representing 68.5% of the Andrews High School total enrollment.

Among the six schools in Andrews County, Andrews Middle School ranked second in enrollment numbers with 920 students, while Clearfork Elementary School welcomed 784 students and ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

Andrews High School is a part of Andrews ISD, which roughly covers schools within Andrews County with its main office in Andrews.

In the previous school year, Andrews High School also had the highest number of students among Andrews County schools.

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.

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.
