This is a 392.7% increase over the previous school year.
Of the 1,072,182 students enrolled in Harris County schools, 6.9% of them were considered to be gifted and talented.
Harris County enrolled the first highest number of gifted and talented students among Texas counties.
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.
