There were four multiracial students enrolled in Miles ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 33.3% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Miles ISD schools welcomed 487 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, multiracial students comprised 0.8% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Miles ISD roughly covers schools within Runnels County and has a main office in Miles.

Among the four schools in Miles ISD schools, Miles Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of multiracial students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of three 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.
