Summary

Genesis High School in Bastrop, TX, is a small alternative high school serving 185 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Bastrop Independent School District (Isd). The school consistently ranks in the bottom 5% of Texas high schools, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, and its academic performance is dramatically lower than nearby schools.

Key metrics reveal significant challenges. In Algebra I and English I Reading, Genesis had a 0% proficiency rate, compared to 39% and 43% respectively at Bastrop High School. The graduation rate is 90.5%, notably lower than Bastrop High (97.9%) and Cedar Creek High School (97.6%), while the dropout rate of 1.1% is over ten times higher than Bastrop High (0.1%). The student-teacher ratio of 24.2:1 is much higher than Bastrop High (16.1:1) and Cedar Creek (18.5:1), which is counterintuitive for a school serving students needing more individualized support. A striking contrast exists with Colorado River Collegiate Academy, which shares the same campus but ranks in the 96th percentile with near-perfect test scores and a 100% graduation rate.

There is a glimmer of hope in Biology, where 60% of students were proficient, outperforming Cedar Creek High (47.44%) and the district average (53.88%). Per-student spending at Genesis ($9,923) is comparable to other district schools, suggesting funding is not the primary issue. The school serves a high-needs population, with 63.24% of students economically disadvantaged, but the data indicates the current model is not effectively closing achievement gaps. The isolated success in Biology may offer a blueprint for improvement in other subjects.
