Summary

Bastrop High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in Bastrop, Louisiana, with a total enrollment of 879 students. The school is part of the Morehouse Parish school district, but its performance has consistently ranked among the lower-performing high schools in Louisiana over the past several years.

Bastrop High School significantly underperforms compared to state and district averages on standardized tests, with only 7% of students proficient or better in LEAP Mathematics and 28% proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 60% and 70% at the state level, respectively. The school's four-year graduation rate has ranged from 80.2% to 83.2%, lower than the state average, and it has experienced very high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 21.9% to 50.2% in recent years. These challenges are likely exacerbated by the school's high percentage of low socioeconomic status students.
