There were 151 Asian students enrolled in Sharyland ISD schools in the 2022-23 school year, 7.1% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Sharyland ISD schools welcomed 9,732 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, Asian students comprised 1.6% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

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

Among the 13 schools in Sharyland ISD schools, Harry Shimotsu Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of Asian students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 47 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.
