There were 13,865 Hispanic students enrolled in Mission CISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 7% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Mission CISD schools welcomed 13,990 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Hispanic students comprised 99.1% of the student body to be one of the most represented ethnicities in the district.

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

Among the 23 schools in Mission CISD schools, Mission High School recorded the highest enrollment of Hispanic students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 2,240 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.
