Summary:
The area covered by the PLA at George H Fisher School 93 district includes just one public school, PLA at George H Fisher School 93, an elementary school in Indianapolis, Indiana serving grades K–6 with 417 students, so there are no other schools in this area to compare it against.
Academically, math is the school's relative strength: 36.74% of students were proficient in math in 2025–26, compared with 23.72% in ELA and 15.46% in science. Sixth grade math is the standout result, at 39.62% proficient against a state rate of 40.2% — a gap of less than one percentage point. Every other grade-level subject falls well below the state, including 3rd grade ELA (16.39% vs. 40.8%), 4th grade science (15.91% vs. 43.8%), 6th grade science (15.09% vs. 41.2%), and 5th grade social studies (17.54% vs. 47.2%, the largest gap in the data at 29.66 points). The school did improve in every reported subject over the past year, with science rising from 7.77% to 15.46% and 5th grade social studies from 7.14% to 17.54%, though those gains start from very low levels. Its 2025–26 state rank is 766 of 1015 — the 25th percentile, with a 1-star rating — up from the 18th percentile the year before.
Two factors stand out beyond test scores. Chronic absenteeism is 37.1%, more than double the state rate of 16.7%, and 74.34% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. The school spends $17,100 per student and has an 11.5:1 student-teacher ratio. For families, the takeaway is that this is a high-need school that is improving but still trails state averages in nearly every reported comparison, with attendance the most urgent barrier.
