Bastrop Intermediate

Bastrop is a charming small city along the Colorado River, about 30 miles southeast of Austin, with a historic downtown and a tight-knit community that's been growing steadily as families look for a more laid-back alternative to the capital. Bastrop Intermediate serves a broad mix of students in this evolving town, and families here tend to prioritize a strong sense of community and local roots over the high-pressure academic competition found closer to Austin. For families already rooted in Bastrop or drawn to its slower pace and affordability, it's worth exploring what additional academic support resources are available, as the school's scores currently sit below state averages across English, math, and science.
