Summary

Fremont Elementary serves 482 students in grades K–5 in Antioch, within Antioch Unified. Chronic absenteeism has improved, falling from 54% in 2021–2022 to 35% in 2025–2026, but the latest rate remained above the district’s 31% and the state’s 18%. The most important concern is that Fremont’s proficiency rates remain low across all three tested subjects and below both district and state levels.

Compared with nearby schools, Fremont’s math results are its strongest relative performance, while ELA is weakest against peers and the state. In 2025–2026, 12% of students were proficient in math, compared with 16% in the district and 38% statewide; Fremont was 8 points below the nearby-school average of 20%. ELA proficiency was 17%, versus 28% districtwide and 49% statewide, and 10 points below the nearby-school average of 27%. Science was lowest at 7%, 10 points below the district and 9 points below the nearby-school average of 16%. Fifth-grade math is an especially weak spot: Fremont’s 4% proficiency was the lowest among eight nearby schools, below Marsh Elementary’s 6%.

Results over time are mixed: from 2022–2023 to 2025–2026, math rose by 2 points to 12%, ELA fell by 1 point to 17%, and science fell by 5 points to 7%; meanwhile, gaps with the state widened in all three subjects. Fremont Elementary remained at the 2nd percentile with 0 stars in SchoolDigger’s rankings for each of the last three years, even though its 19.9 student–teacher ratio in 2024–2025 was the second-lowest among seven nearby district schools. In that same year, 75% of students were eligible for free/reduced-price lunch, a separately reported measure. Some group rankings differ from the overall ranking: SchoolDigger placed English Language Learner Students at the 10th percentile in 2023–2024, down from the 49th percentile in 2021–2022, while Special Education Students ranked at the 20th percentile in 2025–2026 compared with the school’s overall 2nd percentile.

Open Quote Given the transient nature of the students and the disadvantages students have before walking through the door (including lack of parent support either through inability or incapacity), teachers at Fremont have done an amazing job. Students are advancing in spite of decreased budget, programs, parent involvement etc. Maybe if programs were funded and teachers did not have to fund their own classrooms and work 12+ hours daily, more progress could be made. Maybe those reviewing and commenting on SchoolDigger should do something about that and put their efforts to a good, logical use. Close Quote
