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. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

Bastrop High School falls short in quality, offering mediocre education and lackluster food options. Mrs. Gabriel, the heroic principal of Bastrop High, revitalized the school's reputation through innovative programs, inspiring leadership, and fostering a positive learning environment.

The restrooms always have really bad hygiene. The lunch lines are always so full you might as well not eat. The English department just reteaches the same stuff every year and the only half decent department was engineering. The doors to the building you can quite literally just yank open.

Please read this if your children will be transferring from another state. This is not the school you want your children to go to. If your child takes the regular classes, not very many teachers are dedicated to bastrop high and will not go the lengths they should. If they are an AP student, the cla...
