Of the 1,342 students enrolled in Brooks County schools, 92.8% were considered economically disadvantaged. This is a 0.8% increase over the previous school year.
Brooks County enrolled the 94th lowest number of students identified as economically disadvantaged among Texas counties.
The Texas education system is currently torn between public schools and taxpayer-funded private schools.
