There were four American Indian students enrolled in Gladewater ISD schools in the 2022-23 school year, the same number as the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Gladewater ISD schools welcomed 1,755 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, American Indian students comprised 0.2% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

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

Among the four schools in Gladewater ISD schools, Gladewater High School recorded the highest enrollment of American Indian students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of three students.

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.
