There was one American Indian student enrolled in Maypearl ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 80% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Maypearl ISD schools welcomed 1,178 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, American Indian students comprised 0.1% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Maypearl ISD roughly covers schools within Ellis County and has a main office in Maypearl.

Maypearl Middle School was the only school in the district which enrolled American Indian students, welcoming one student in the 2021-22 school year.

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.
