There were 843 Hispanic students enrolled in Santa Rosa ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 8.7% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Santa Rosa ISD schools welcomed 849 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Hispanic students comprised 99.3% of the student body to be one of the most represented ethnicities in the district.

Santa Rosa ISD roughly covers schools within Cameron County and has a main office in Santa Rosa.

Among the three schools in Santa Rosa ISD schools, Elma E. Barrera Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of Hispanic students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 362 students.

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.
