District-Level NCES Analysis
Basis Texas operates 12 public schools serving 4,972 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Texas. The school portfolio breaks down into 9 elementary, 2 middle, 1 combined schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Bexar County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $9,186 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the bottom 121 of 1202 Texas districts by per-pupil spending. See how Texas compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 15.9% local, 77.3% state, and 6.8% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 23/100, ranked #942 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 12 schools offering Advanced Placement (26 AP courses district-wide), and 17.0% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 41.4% Asian, 26.9% Hispanic or Latino, 15.5% White across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Basis San Antonio Pri - Jack Lewis Jr Campus, with a diversity index of 73.3/100.
Basis San Antonio- Shavano Campus accounts for 18.1% of all Basis Texas student enrollment
That concentration means Basis Texas-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Basis Texas school enrollment varies 8.3× across entities
Basis Texas school enrollment ranges from 128 students (lowest) to 1,057 students (highest), a spread of 929 students. That spread reflects typical mixed-portfolio variation between specialty programs and large neighbourhood schools. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Basis Texas chronic absenteeism rate is 17.0% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Variation between sub-units within Basis Texas is typically wider than the Basis Texas-aggregate figure suggests.
