Of the 3,843 students enrolled in Lampasas County schools, 53.7% were considered economically disadvantaged. This is a 10.6% decrease from the previous school year.
Lampasas County enrolled the 127th highest number of students identified as economically disadvantaged among Texas counties.
Education in Texas is often a hot button issue, especially as test scores lag behind other states.
"The problems commonly cited are flaws in the school financing system, relatively low teacher salary, poor test performance by students...dropouts from traditional schools in favor of charter schools...gun violence, and mental health issues," claimed the Texas Almanac.
