Of all the students welcomed in the 2021-22 school year, 50.7% of them were boys, and 49.3% were girls.

Among the four schools in Bridge City ISD, Bridge City Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of 852 students in the 2021-22 school year.

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.
