Summary

Christel House DORS is a grades 9–12 high school at 2717 S East St in Indianapolis, Indiana, enrolling 1,062 students and operating as its own single-school district, Christel House DORS. Its students are highly economically disadvantaged: 87.38% qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–25, the highest rate among the nearby schools compared here.

Outcomes at Christel House DORS are at or near the bottom of Indiana's rankings. The district ranks 374th of 374 Indiana districts, and the school ranked 414th of 415 in 2025–26 — a bottom-of-the-list position it has held since at least 2014–15. In 2024–25, the graduation rate was 29.0% (state: 89.7%) and chronic absenteeism was 82.0% (state: 16.7%), meaning most students missed substantial instructional time. SAT proficiency for 11th graders was 0% in both Evidence-based Reading and Writing and Mathematics in 2024–25 and 2025–26; in 2023–24 it was 5.88% in EB RW and 0% in Math. Biology ILEARN End-of-Course proficiency was 18.75% in 2023–24, below the state's 43.6%. Statewide subgroup rankings are also very low, including low-income students at 389th of 390 in 2025–26.

Compared with nearby schools, DORS stands apart. George Washington High School (408th of 415), Arsenal Technical High School (393rd) and Southport High School (291st) all rank higher, as do Christel House Watanabe Manual High School (91.1% graduation, 36.5% chronic absenteeism) and Purdue Polytechnic High School Ind. DORS does outperform the alternative Excel Center - Southeast (3.5% graduation) and Excel Center - University Heights (3.7%). Despite serving the highest-poverty population in the group, DORS spent $5,319 per student in 2023–24 — less than Southport, Purdue Polytechnic, Arsenal Tech, George Washington and The Hope Academy Inc. — with a student-teacher ratio of 24.1 in 2024–25 (43.1 in 2023–24). Test data for Hope Academy and Excel Center - University Heights was suppressed by the state in 2025–26, so those comparisons are incomplete.
