The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students.

We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

We had teachers that were willing to go the extra with the students that showed the initiative that they wanted to learn the worst was the food other than that I had a good experience at the school

I first started at Bastrop High School as a Freshman in fall of 2018. When I first got there I was scared, only because I felt as though the seniors was big even tho i was 5"7 myself, walking around the campus i felt small, I thought I was going to get picked on like they do in movies. One of the best parts about this school is that there was no bullying going on, everybody was cool with one another, we all went to the football games together and packed the stands out. I would say that is one thing I truly miss. My first bad experience came from my 10th grade math teacher when I used to let her know that I couldn't understand her and she used to put me out the class over and over.

Unfortunately I have three kids that go here as I really have no other choice. A school especially a high school is a microcosim of the community in which iit is located. Bastrop is a small town consisting mostly of hypocritical "Sunday" Christians intolerant of the religious and non religious views...

Move, just move to a different school district - you do not want your children "educated" here.

I'm obviously not going to rate a school that both encouraged and then failed to stop (knowing full well that it was planned) to stop unconstitutional prayer during graduation. This kind of negligence costs tax payers millions of dollars every year! Its a waste of time and resources and is completel...
