Summary

Fremont High is a large, well-regarded public high school serving approximately 2,060 students in grades 9-12 within the highly-ranked Fremont Union High district in Sunnyvale, California.

Academically, Fremont High is a solid performer that ranks in the 80th-86th percentile of all California high schools, meaning it outperforms most schools in the state. However, it is important for parents to know that it underperforms compared to other schools in its own district, such as Cupertino High and Monta Vista High, in key areas like test scores, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism. Its performance is more comparable to schools with similar student demographics in neighboring districts, like Santa Clara High and Adrian Wilcox High.

The school faces specific challenges, including a chronic absenteeism rate of 20.2%, which is higher than the district average, and a dropout rate that is two-and-a-half times the district average. While the school spends a similar amount per student as its higher-performing district peers, these outcomes suggest there may be efficiency or program implementation differences. Fremont High's performance has remained stable over the past decade, indicating consistency but also highlighting an opportunity to learn from the practices of top schools within the Fremont Union High district to better support all student groups.
