Summary
Fremont Elementary is a K–6 school serving 443 students in Fresno, California, within Fresno Unified. Its 2025–2026 results show that its clearest strength is math compared with nearby schools, while its most important challenge is that proficiency remains below district and state averages in all three tested subjects.
Math is Fremont’s strongest subject in the local comparison: 22% of students were proficient, just above the nearby-school average of 22.2%; Fremont scored higher than five of nine peers. In ELA, 24% were proficient, below the nearby average of 28% and below seven of nine peers. Science proficiency was 14%, compared with a nearby average of 19%. Fremont was also below Fresno Unified and California in every subject: its gaps were 16 and 26 percentage points in ELA, 7 and 16 in math, and 10 and 22 in science, respectively. By grade, third-grade math stands out: 33% proficiency was higher than at six of eight nearby schools with results. Fifth-grade math was a weaker spot, at 13%, higher than only two of seven nearby schools with results.
Results have improved since 2022–2023: proficiency rose by 3 percentage points in ELA, 5 in math, and 6 in science. However, the gaps with the district widened in all three subjects over that period. Chronic absenteeism also fell substantially, from 55% in 2021–2022 to 29% in 2025–2026, but remained above district and state rates. SchoolDigger ranked Fremont at the 14th percentile statewide and gave it 1 star in 2025–2026; its reported student–teacher ratio was 17.2:1 in 2024–2025. Fremont reported that 92% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025. SchoolDigger’s subgroup rankings show stronger relative standing for English Language Learner Students, at the 55th percentile in 2023–2024, and Special Education Students, at the 45th percentile in 2025–2026, compared with Fremont’s overall 14th-percentile standing.
