There were 48 multiracial students enrolled in Keene ISD schools in the 2021-22 school year, 15.8% less than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Keene ISD schools welcomed 1,021 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, multiracial students comprised 4.7% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Keene ISD roughly covers schools within Johnson County and has a main office in Keene.

Among the five schools in Keene ISD schools, Keene High School recorded the highest enrollment of multiracial students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 14 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.
