There were four multiracial students enrolled in Dew ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 20% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Dew ISD schools welcomed 133 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, multiracial students comprised 3% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Dew ISD roughly covers schools within Freestone County and has a main office in Teague.

Dew Elementary School was the only school in the district which enrolled multiracial students, welcoming four students in the 2021-22 school year.

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.
