Summary

Fishers Junior High School is a grades 7–8 middle school serving about 840 students in Fishers, Indiana, one of three junior highs in the highly ranked Hamilton Southeastern Schools district. It is a 5-star school ranked 18th of 486 Indiana middle schools — the 96th percentile and its best showing in a decade, with 4 or 5 stars every year on record.

On the 2025–26 ILEARN exams, 61.09% of students passed English language arts and 61.89% passed math. That is roughly 5 to 6 points below the district average but far above the state — about 16 to 21 points ahead in ELA and roughly 27 points ahead in math at both grade levels. Math is actually a relative strength here: Fishers is one of the few nearby schools where math proficiency exceeds ELA. Compared with neighbors, it trails Clay Middle School (69.46 ELA / 68.87 math), sits near Noblesville East Middle School in ELA while well ahead in math, and far outpaces Fall Creek Valley Middle School (44.8 / 28.86). Scores have improved four years running, including a 6.4-point single-year jump in ELA.

Chronic absenteeism fell from 15.2% in 2023–24 to 7.5% in 2024–25 — less than half the state rate and now essentially at district average; it is the largest one-year change in the data. Fishers serves the highest-need population among Hamilton Southeastern middle schools, with 29.64% of students on free or reduced-price lunch, yet it has the lowest student-teacher ratio in that group at 15.1, and per-pupil spending of $12,838 is up 32% in four years. The combination of highest need, generous staffing, and proficiency below its own district peers is the main tension worth watching as these gains carry forward.
