There was one Asian student enrolled in Blue Ridge ISD schools in the 2022-23 school year, 50% less than 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, Asian students comprised 0.1% 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.

Blue Ridge Elementary School was the only school in the district which enrolled Asian students, welcoming one student in the 2022-23 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.
