There were 17 Asian students enrolled in Southside ISD schools in the 2022-23 school year, 30.8% more than the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

Data showed that Southside ISD schools welcomed 5,965 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, Asian students comprised 0.3% of the student body to be one of the least represented ethnicities in the district.

Southside ISD roughly covers schools within Bexar County and has a main office in San Antonio.

Among the 10 schools in Southside ISD schools, Southside High School recorded the highest enrollment of Asian students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of six 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.
