Of the 2,338 students attending Ward County schools, 66.3% were Hispanic. White students were the second largest ethnicity, making up 28.2% of the total enrollment.
In the previous school year, Hispanic students also made up the largest ethnic group in Ward County, comprising 64.5% of the student body.
Monahans High School, Walker Junior High School and Sudderth Elementary School had the most diverse student body in Ward County, including white, American Indian, Black, Asian, Hispanic, Pacific Islander, and multiracial.
When compared to the previous school year, total public school enrollment in the county increased by 0.2%.
“As a result, many districts in our very own Central Texas region are being forced to cut back on essential programs, services, consider school closures, and adopt deficit budgets just to provide students with the education that they deserve,” Hutto ISD Trustee James Matlock said.
