Stonewall County schools enrolled nine students who were identified as being gifted and talented during the 2022-23 school year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

This is an 18.2% decrease from the previous school year.

Of the 199 students enrolled in Stonewall County schools, 4.5% of them were considered to be gifted and talented.

Stonewall County enrolled the fourth lowest number of gifted and talented students among Texas counties.

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.
