Data showed that Nederland ISD schools welcomed 5,009 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, white students comprised 52% of the student body to be one of the most represented ethnicities in the district.

Nederland ISD roughly covers schools within Jefferson County and has a main office in Nederland.

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.
