There were 99 Hispanic students enrolled in Slidell ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 20.7% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Slidell ISD schools welcomed 383 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Hispanic students comprised 25.8% of the student body to be one of the most represented ethnicities in the district.

Slidell ISD roughly covers schools within Wise County and has a main office in Slidell.

Slidell Schools was the only school in the district which enrolled Hispanic students, welcoming 99 students in the 2021-22 school year.

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.
