Clear Creek ISD had the highest enrollment among Galveston County districts, welcoming 40,832 students during the 2021-22 academic year, according to the Texas Education Agency report.

Out of the total students welcomed in the 2021-22 school year, 51.3% of them were boys, and 48.7% were girls.

The most represented ethnicity among Clear Creek ISD students was white, accounting for 44.4% of the student population.

Among the 11 districts in Galveston County, Texas College Preparatory Academies ranked second in enrollment numbers with 15,238 students, while Dickinson ISD welcomed 11,933 students and ranked third in the 2021-22 school year.

Clear Creek ISD generally encompasses schools within Galveston County with its main office in League City.

In the previous school year, Clear Creek ISD had the highest number of students among Galveston County districts.

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.

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.
