There were 654 Hispanic students enrolled in Marion ISD schools in the 2022-23 school year, 7.4% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Marion ISD schools welcomed 1,527 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, Hispanic students comprised 42.8% of the student body to be one of the most represented ethnicities in the district.

Marion ISD roughly covers schools within Guadalupe County and has a main office in Marion.

Among the five schools in Marion ISD schools, Marion High School recorded the highest enrollment of Hispanic students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 189 students.

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.
