There were 176 Asian students enrolled in Edinburg CISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 2.8% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Edinburg CISD schools welcomed 32,078 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Asian students comprised 0.5% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

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

Among the 44 schools in Edinburg CISD schools, Canterbury Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of Asian students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 54 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.
