There were 175 African American students enrolled in Kaufman ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 2.2% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Kaufman ISD schools welcomed 4,103 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, African American students comprised 4.3% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Kaufman ISD roughly covers schools within Kaufman County and has a main office in Kaufman.

Among the seven schools in Kaufman ISD schools, Kaufman High School recorded the highest enrollment of African American students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 58 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.
