Summary

Fremont Primary is a K–4 school in Calipatria, California, serving 348 students in Calipatria Unified. Its 2025–26 results show math is relatively stronger, but both tested subjects trail the state. The clearest concern is English language arts (ELA): 21% of students were proficient, 29 percentage points below the state and 17 points below the district.

Math is closer to the benchmarks, though it remains below them: 26% were proficient, compared with 38% statewide and 27% in the district. Nearby schools averaged 30% in math, putting Fremont 4 points below that average. ELA is a more pronounced weakness: the nearby-school average was 38%, 17 points above Fremont, and Fremont had the second-lowest ELA result among 10 nearby schools with reported results. It was above only Grace Smith Elementary. Results also fell from third to fourth grade, especially in math: proficiency dropped 11 points, from 32% to 21%.

Results have declined since 2022–23: ELA fell 9 percentage points and math fell 8, while each subject’s gap with the state widened by about 12 points. SchoolDigger’s statewide standing also fell, from the 30th percentile in 2023–24 to the 13th percentile in 2025–26; it assigns Fremont 1 star. One notable exception is its SchoolDigger ranking for English Language Learner Students: the school reached the 93rd percentile in 2023–24, compared with its overall 30th percentile that year, indicating a much stronger standing in how it served that group than overall. By contrast, its Special Education Students ranking was at the 2nd percentile in 2024–25, below its overall 17th percentile. For context, Fremont had 19.8 students per teacher in 2024–25, close to the nearby-school average of 19.4, and 92% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year, the third-highest rate among 10 nearby schools.
