There were 997 students enrolled in Rice ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 2.9% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Of all the students welcomed in the 2021-22 school year, 50.2% of them were girls, and 49.8% were boys.

Data also shows that the majority of students were Hispanic, representing 72% of the Rice ISD total enrollment.

Rice ISD roughly covers schools within Navarro County with its main office in Rice.

Among the three schools in Rice ISD, Rice Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of 400 students in the 2021-22 school year.

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.
