Out of the total students welcomed in the 2022-23 school year, 50.4% of them were boys, and 49.6% were girls.

Among the 52 districts in Harris County, Cypress-Fairbanks ISD ranked second in enrollment numbers with 118,010 students, while Katy ISD welcomed 92,667 students and ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.
Houston ISD roughly covers schools within Harris County with its main office in Houston.

Texas is found to be one of the least educated states in the U.S. A study from WalletHub ranked Texas 41st out of 50 states in terms of the quality of the educational system and how successful students were.
More than 5.4 million students are enrolled in public schools across Texas. Nearly one million of them live in rural areas where options for local public schools are few and far between.
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.
