Ozona Elementary School had the highest enrollment among Crockett County schools, welcoming 321 students during the 2021-22 academic year, according to the Texas Education Agency report.

Of all the students welcomed in the 2021-22 school year, 54.8% of them were boys, and 45.2% were girls.

Data also showed that the majority of students were Hispanic, representing 74.1% of the Ozona Elementary School total enrollment.

Among the three schools in Crockett County, Ozona High School ranked second in enrollment numbers with 235 students, while Ozona Middle School welcomed 173 students and ranked third in the 2021-22 school year.

Ozona Elementary School is a part of Crockett County Consolidated CSD, which roughly covers schools within Crockett County with its main office in Ozona.

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.

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.
