Summary:
Red Rock, Texas, is served by a single public elementary school, Red Rock Elementary, which educates students from Pre-Kindergarten through 5th grade as part of the Bastrop Independent School District (ISD).
As the only school in the area, Red Rock Elementary is a large school with 777 students and a student-teacher ratio of 15.4:1. The school faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom 2-4% of all Texas elementary schools over the last three school years and receiving a state accountability rating of 0 out of 5 stars. A very high percentage of students (87.39%) are economically disadvantaged, which is a key context for understanding the school's performance. The school's spending per student is $11,004.
Academic proficiency on the STAAR tests is dramatically lower than both the district and state averages across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2025-2026 school year, only 21.62% of 3rd graders were proficient in reading, and just 15.32% were proficient in math. One notable exception is 4th grade math, where 34.51% of students were proficient, slightly outperforming the district average. However, overall, the school shows no signs of improvement, with its ranking and star rating remaining flat and critically low for three consecutive years. This suggests that current strategies are not producing the necessary gains for the student body.
