Summary

Fremont Elementary is a K-8 public school serving 654 students in the Alhambra Unified School District, notable for its impressive and steady improvement in recent years.

The school's story is one of strong growth, having climbed from a 2-star to a 4-star rating since 2019 and now ranking in the top quarter of all California schools. This upward trend stands out compared to some neighbors, like Emery Park Elementary, which has seen a decline. Fremont has also made remarkable progress in getting students to school regularly, dramatically reducing chronic absenteeism to a rate better than both the district and state averages. While its overall test scores are solid, the school shows exceptional effectiveness in supporting English Language Learners and has significantly higher per-student spending than many nearby schools, such as Monterey Highlands Elementary and Brightwood Elementary.

Areas for attention include science proficiency, which is notably lower than the district average, especially in 8th grade. Performance also varies by grade level, with middle school math scores being a relative weakness. It's important for parents to know that all schools in the Alhambra Unified district, including Fremont, generally perform better than nearby schools in the Los Angeles Unified district. Overall, Fremont Elementary is a school on a clear upward trajectory, demonstrating particular strengths in supporting specific student groups and improving student attendance.
