There were 22 Asian students enrolled in Burnet CISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 22.2% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Burnet CISD schools welcomed 3,277 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Asian students comprised 0.7% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Burnet CISD roughly covers schools within Burnet County and has a main office in Burnet.

Among the six schools in Burnet CISD schools, Burnet High School recorded the highest enrollment of Asian students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of five students.

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.
