Data showed that Austin County welcomed 5,793 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Black comprised 7.3% of the student body to be the third most represented ethnicity in the county.
Among the 12 schools in Austin County, Sealy High School recorded the highest enrollment of Black students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 68 students.
