Northside ISD had the highest enrollment among Bexar County districts, welcoming 102,719 students during the 2022-23 academic year, according to the Texas Education Agency report.

Out of the total students welcomed in the 2022-23 school year, 51.6% of them were boys, and 48.4% were girls.

Data also showed that most of the students were Hispanic, representing 68% of the Northside ISD total enrollment.

Among the 42 districts in Bexar County, Idea Public Schools ranked second in enrollment numbers with 74,217 students, while North East ISD welcomed 59,007 students and ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

Northside ISD roughly covers schools within Bexar County with its main office in San Antonio.

In the previous school year, Northside ISD had the highest number of students among Bexar County districts.

Texas is found to be one of the least educated states in the U.S. A study from WalletHub ranked Texas 41st out of 50 states in terms of the quality of the educational system and how successful students were.

More than 5.4 million students are enrolled in public schools across Texas. Nearly one million of them live in rural areas where options for local public schools are few and far between.

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.
