Better than 93% of Texas elementary schools

Summary

Basis Austin is a small, high-performing charter school in Austin, TX, serving 155 students in grades 3-6 as part of the top-ranked Basis Texas district, and it stands out as an academic island in a neighborhood surrounded by much larger, lower-performing public schools.

Basis Austin consistently earns a 5-star rating and ranks in the 93rd percentile statewide, a stark contrast to nearby Austin Independent School District (Isd) elementary schools like Guerrero Thompson, Barrington Elementary, and McBee Elementary, which all rank in the 1st to 26th percentile. The gap in test scores is enormous: for example, 3rd-grade math proficiency at Basis Austin is 78%, while nearby AISD schools range from just 10% to 28%. The only local school offering a somewhat comparable environment is Harmony School Of Science - Austin, which ranks in the 65th percentile. Basis Austin also has a separate Basis Austin Pri campus for grades K-2, creating a specialized two-campus structure.

While Basis Austin excels overall, its state ranking has declined slightly from the 99th percentile in 2022-2023 to the 93rd percentile recently, a trend worth monitoring. The school is exceptionally effective for Male Students and English Language Learner Students, but less so for Asian and Multi-racial students. Math performance is a relative weakness, with 4th-grade math proficiency at 53% and 6th-grade at 63%, compared to reading scores of 75-89%. With a low student-to-teacher ratio of 13:1 and a 0% dropout rate, Basis Austin offers a rigorous, high-achieving option for families seeking a demanding academic environment in this area of Austin.
