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

Data showed that Blue Ridge ISD schools welcomed 1,009 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, American Indian students comprised 0.4% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Blue Ridge ISD roughly covers schools within Collin County and has a main office in Blue Ridge.

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