El Paso Standard

There were 150,015 Hispanic students enrolled in El Paso County schools in the 2022-23 school year, 2.5% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that El Paso County welcomed 165,865 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, Hispanic students comprised 90.4% of the student body to be the most represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the 240 schools in El Paso County, Eastlake High School recorded the highest enrollment of Hispanic students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 2,661 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.
