Summary

Emile Elementary is a public elementary school in Bastrop, Texas, serving 586 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Bastrop Independent School District (ISD). Despite the district's 1-star rating, Emile Elementary consistently outperforms both the district and the state of Texas in STAAR reading and math assessments across grades 3-5. For example, in 2024-2025, Emile Elementary's 3rd-grade reading proficiency rate was 48.98% compared to 28.78% for Bastrop ISD and 52.02% for Texas, and its 5th-grade math proficiency rate was 34.55% compared to 26.03% for Bastrop ISD and 46.24% for Texas.

Emile Elementary has a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students (61.77% in 2023-2024) compared to the state average, as well as a higher percentage of Hispanic and African American students compared to nearby schools. However, the school spends more per student ($10,631 in 2020-2021) and has a lower student-teacher ratio (13.9 in 2023-2024) than the state average. This suggests that the school is making progress in addressing its academic challenges and providing a better educational experience for its diverse student population.

While Emile Elementary generally outperforms other schools within the Bastrop ISD, such as Red Rock Elementary and Cedar Creek Elementary, it still faces challenges in addressing achievement gaps among its student subgroups. The nearby Mina Elementary, which is only 0.51 miles away, has higher proficiency rates in reading and math, suggesting that Emile Elementary could learn from Mina's best practices to continue improving its academic performance.
