There were three Asian students enrolled in Brooks County ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 25% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Brooks County ISD schools welcomed 1,342 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Asian students comprised 0.2% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Brooks County ISD roughly covers schools within Brooks County and has a main office in Falfurrias.

Among the five schools in Brooks County ISD schools, Lasater Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of Asian students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of one student.

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.
