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 other schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 5,828 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Bexar County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $9,186 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 15.9% local, 77.3% state, and 6.8% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. The district's equity score — 27/100, ranked #919 of 1044 in Texas against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

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.

Basis San Antonio- Shavano Campus accounts for 18.1% of all BASIS TEXAS student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means BASIS TEXAS-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: other. 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 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.
