Data showed that Wheeler County welcomed 1,086 students during the 2021-22 school year. Among them, Multiracial comprised 4.1% of the student body to be the third most represented ethnicity in the county.
Among the six schools in Wheeler County, Shamrock Elementary School recorded the highest enrollment of Multiracial students in the 2021-22 school year, with a total of 13 students.
