There were 14 Asian students enrolled in Montague County schools in the 2021-22 school year, 7.7% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Montague County welcomed 3,432 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Asian comprised 0.4% of the student body to be the second least represented ethnicity in the county.

Among the 13 schools in Montague County, only Bowie High School and Nocona Elementary School enrolled any Asian students, welcoming four students each in the 2021-22 school year.

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.
