Summary

Fishers Elementary School is a PK–4 public school with 437 students in Fishers, Indiana, part of Hamilton Southeastern Schools, a district that ranks 6th of 374 in Indiana at the 98th percentile. In 2025–2026, the school ranked 118th of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools — the 88th percentile with 4 stars — a notable climb from 2021–2022, when it sat at the 57th percentile with 3 stars.

Academically, the standout result is 3rd-grade math: 79.45% of students were proficient, above the district's 74.03% and far above the state's 51.9%, and behind only Lantern Road Elementary School among nearby HSE schools. The clear weak spot is 4th grade, where math proficiency (60%) falls below the district's 72.96% — the lowest among the nearby HSE schools shown — and ELA proficiency (58.82%) trails the district's 67.68%. Fourth-grade science (64.71%) nearly matches the district (65.11%). Overall, math (68.99%) and science (64.71%) are now at or slightly above district averages, while ELA (62.66%) sits 3.77 points below. Fishers ranks ahead of Hoosier Road Elementary School and close to Cumberland Road Elementary School, but trails New Britton Elementary School, Harrison Parkway Elementary School, Sand Creek Elementary, and Brooks School Elementary.

Chronic absenteeism is a real strength: 6.8% in 2024–2025, below the district's 7.3% and far below the state's 16.7%, and down from 12.3% in 2022–2023. About 28.6% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch — more than Cherry Tree Elementary School (12.94%) and Prairie Trace Elementary School (11.05%) in Carmel Clay Schools, but far less than Mary Evelyn Castle Elementary School (52.19%) in MSD Lawrence Township. Per-student spending is $12,151, and the student-teacher ratio is 15.4. Because Fishers is the smallest school among its nearby peers, grade-level results can swing with a single class.
