Of the many ethnicities represented in Webb County County schools, Hispanic was the most prevalent ethnicity among Webb County County students in the 2021-22 school year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

In the previous school year, Hispanic students still were the most common group in Webb County County, representing 99.2% of the student body.

George Washington Middle School and United High School had the most diverse student body in Webb County County, including white, American Indian, Black, Asian, Hispanic, Pacific Islander, and Multi-racial.

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.
