Summary

Colony Oaks Elementary is a PK-5 school in Bastrop, TX, serving 824 students within the Bastrop Independent School District (Isd), and it has emerged as a standout performer with a dramatic turnaround in recent years.

Colony Oaks has shown remarkable improvement, jumping from a 1-star rating (23rd percentile) to a 3-star rating (58th percentile) in a single year, making it the highest-ranked elementary school in the district by a wide margin. In reading and math, Colony Oaks consistently meets or exceeds state averages, while nearby schools like Cedar Creek Elementary and Camino Real Elementary score in the low teens. Even Emile Elementary, which was ranked higher just two years ago, has fallen behind, now at the 13th percentile. This success is notable because Colony Oaks achieves it with larger class sizes (a student-teacher ratio of 17.8:1) than many of its lower-performing peers.

The school’s improvement is broad-based, with African American students jumping from the 9th to the 67th percentile in one year, and both male and female students performing well. However, two areas need attention: special education students rank in the 5th percentile, and economically disadvantaged students rank in the 12th percentile. Despite these challenges, Colony Oaks’ overall trajectory is impressive, and it serves a student population with a lower rate of economic disadvantage (51.58%) compared to other Bastrop ISD elementary schools, which range from 73% to 87%.
