Summary

Steven Millard Elementary is a consistently well-regarded K-5 public school serving 455 students in the Fremont Unified district, known for its strong math program and diverse student population.

Academically, the school is a standout in mathematics, where its 64% proficiency rate significantly outpaces the state average and outperforms several nearby schools like Brier Elementary and John Blacow Elementary. It maintains this strength across all grade levels. However, its science scores are an area for growth, lagging behind neighbors such as Mission Valley Elementary and Harvey Green Elementary. The school is particularly effective in supporting English Language Learners, but has faced recent challenges in achievement for some student subgroups.

Notably, the school serves a more economically diverse population than some higher-performing schools like Lila Bringhurst Elementary, yet achieves competitive results. Chronic absenteeism, while better than the state, is higher than the district average and some top local schools. A point of interest is its proximity to John Blacow Elementary, which has very different academic and attendance outcomes despite being less than a mile away, highlighting how individual school environments can vary. While its statewide ranking has slightly declined in recent years, Steven Millard Elementary remains a solid, stable choice with a clear strength in math education.
