Data showed that Washington County welcomed 5,404 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Black comprised 18.8% of the student body to be the third most represented ethnicity in the county.
Among the nine schools in Washington County, Brenham High School recorded the highest enrollment of Black students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 298 students.
