There were 35 African American students enrolled in Hardin ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, the same number as the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Hardin ISD schools welcomed 1,281 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, African American students comprised 2.7% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Hardin ISD roughly covers schools within Liberty County and has a main office in Hardin.

Among the three schools in Hardin ISD schools, Hardin Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of African American students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 18 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.
