BASIS Charter Schools are nationally acclaimed, tuition-free public charter schools serving grades K–12. Since 1998, BASIS Charter Schools have been achieving excellent student outcomes and surpassing national and international academic standards. There are 39 BASIS Charter Schools located across the country—including two campuses located right here in Baton Rouge. The two BASIS Baton Rouge Charter School campuses are successful, diverse, and growing fast. BASIS Baton Rouge Materra opened in 2018. It currently serves grades K–9 and will expand to K-12 by 2026–27. The second Baton Rouge campus, BASIS Baton Rouge Primary Mid City, opened in August 2021 with more than 300 K-5 students. Together, the two BASIS Baton Rouge Charter Schools provide students with a complete K–12 experience that sets them up for academic success.
BASIS Charter Schools believe that when you raise the bar, students will rise to meet it. Supported by Heads of School Jared Lamb (Materra) and Marissa Carroll (Mid City), the faculty at BASIS Baton Rouge Charter Schools is committed to helping students reach their potential. In addition to mastering complex concepts at an accelerated rate, students are taught important life skills such as critical thinking, time management, organization, and accountability. BASIS Baton Rouge Charter Schools are open enrollment, tuition-free public charter schools with no entry exam. Anyone can attend, and everyone is welcome. Prospective families are invited to take a campus tour or attend a school event to learn more about the BASIS Charter School curriculum, school culture, extracurriculars, and more.
