Additionally, BASIS Baton Rouge Materra was the highest-performing open-enrollment school in Baton Rouge.


LEAP is a standardized test administered by the Louisiana Department of Education. Students in grades 3 and up take the test each year. LEAP is designed to measure students’ knowledge and skills in specific subjects. We’re thrilled to see the progress our students made over the past year!
