Summary

Lost Pines Elementary is a PK-5 campus in Bastrop, TX, serving 896 students within the Bastrop Independent School District (Isd). The school is currently the lowest-performing elementary in its district and one of the lowest in the state, with a state ranking that has dropped from the 33rd percentile in 2022-2023 to the 2nd percentile in 2025-2026. Over 82% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, and the school’s academic performance is critically low across all grades and subjects, with proficiency rates far below district and state averages—for example, only 17% of 3rd graders were proficient in math compared to 44% statewide.

Compared to nearby schools, the challenges at Lost Pines are stark. Just 7 miles away, Colony Oaks Elementary ranks in the 58th percentile and serves a student body with a much lower poverty rate (51.58% vs. 82.25%). Other district peers like Bluebonnet Elementary (34th percentile) and Mina Elementary (18th percentile) also significantly outperform Lost Pines. Even struggling schools in nearby Elgin Independent School District (Isd) rank higher (11th-12th percentile). Science is a particular weakness—only 2.76% of 5th graders were proficient in 2024-2025, the lowest among all nearby schools.

Despite the overall decline, there are a few notable points. In 2023-2024, Lost Pines’ 4th graders achieved a 27.66% proficiency rate in math, which was actually higher than the district average (24.75%), suggesting a specific cohort or teacher may have been effective. Additionally, the school’s Gifted and Talented subgroup ranked in the 64th percentile in 2022-2023, though this has since dropped to the 13th percentile. Per-student spending at Lost Pines ($11,610) is not notably higher than its peers, despite serving a high-needs population, and is significantly lower than the $16,046 spent at Smithville Elementary in the Smithville Independent School District (Isd).

What people are saying

by a parent
Friday, September 24, 2010

My son has attended this school from the beginning. If I had another option besides moving, I would take it. The teachers are attentive and understand, but only if the problem doesn't interfere with their class structure and curriculum. I believe students are asked to know and do a lot more than when I was in school, but my son is ADHD and there isn't much help they are willing to offer. It's been a struggle every year just to make sure he passes. They don't offer any kind of tutorials unless I'm willing to cut my work day to make sure he gets picked up. He does get special help, but I don't believe its enough. I know he can do a lot better. And the teachers and principal only want to help him just so far. He's been tagged as a trouble kid since kindergarten because of all the problems before we were able to put him on some medication. Then I had to go through the steps of finding the right med, which changes every year or so. They believe a lot of his problems are due to my lack of involvement in school, but I just don't have the time. Especially when he is sent with extra homework every night and some times on the weekends. Homework time is usually double that of a normal child. I've recommended a few options to them, but they have never put them into play. Close Quote
