Los Fresnos High School had the highest enrollment among Cameron County schools, welcoming 3,272 students during the 2022-23 academic year, according to the Texas Education Agency report.

Of all the students welcomed in the 2022-23 school year, 51.3% of them were boys, and 48.7% were girls.

Data also showed that the majority of students were Hispanic, representing 96.3% of the Los Fresnos High School total enrollment.

Among the 167 schools in Cameron County, Rivera Early College High School ranked second in enrollment numbers with 2,254 students, while Hanna Early College High School welcomed 2,246 students and ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

Los Fresnos High School is a part of Los Fresnos CISD, which roughly covers schools within Cameron County with its main office in Los Fresnos.

In the previous school year, Los Fresnos High School also had the highest number of students among Cameron County schools.

Texas is found to be one of the least educated states in the U.S. A study from WalletHub ranked Texas 41st out of 50 states in terms of the quality of the educational system and how successful students were.

More than 5.4 million students are enrolled in public schools across Texas. Nearly one million of them live in rural areas where options for local public schools are few and far between.

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.
