Five Reasons Bishop Luers High School Stands Out

 

1. Holistic, Values-Based Education
   As a Catholic school, Bishop Luers nurtures students in faith, academics, and service; grounded in dignity, integrity, respect, and responsibility.

 

1. Excellence in Performing Arts
   Known for its robust performing arts, including the Minstrels Show Choir, concert choir, and theater productions, Bishop Luers hosted the nation’s first Show Choir Invitational in 1975.

 

1. A Legacy of Athletic Achievement
   The Knights field teams in 19 sanctioned sports and 6 club sports. In 2008, Luers made history by winning football, basketball, and baseball state titles in a single year.  The first school in Indiana to do so since 1973.

 

1. Community Service Through Sodalitas
   The Sodalitas program delivered approximately 1,500 service hours, generating over $50,000 in community value during a recent service day. Students served across dozens of organizations with standout impact. 

 

1. Strong Enrollment Support & 100% Graduation Rate
   For the 2024–2025 school year, Bishop Luers had a 100% graduation rate, an 11.8:1 student-teacher ratio, and an enrollment of approximately 553 students.
