Uplift Heights Preparatory Middle School has 317 at risk students during 2022-23 school year

Uplift Heights Preparatory Middle School (Uplift Education) enrolled 317 students who identified as at risk during the 2022-23 school year, according to the Texas Education Agency.

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.
