Summary

Fremont High is an Oakland Unified grades 9–12 school in Oakland, California, with 1,166 students. Its 2025–2026 proficiency rates were low: 21% in English, 6% in math, and 13% in science. Chronic absenteeism was 39%, compared with 30% in the district and 18% statewide; the graduation rate was 79%, and the dropout rate was 18%. The most important concern is that low academic results coincide with substantial attendance challenges: Fremont’s proficiency was below district and state rates in all three subjects, and its chronic absenteeism exceeded both.

Among nearby schools with current scores, Fremont ranked second-lowest in ELA, math, and science; only Alternatives in Action scored lower in each. Fremont’s ELA result was 13 points below the district and 28 below the state, while its math result was 22 points below the district and 33 below the state. ELA is its strongest subject relative to district and state results, and math is its weakest. Compared with the average for five nearby grades 9–12 schools—including Oakland High and Alameda High—Fremont was 22 points lower in ELA, 20 in math, and 15 in science.

Results have improved since 2022–2023: proficiency rose 5 points in ELA, 4 in math, and 9 in science, though all three remain below state rates. SchoolDigger placed Fremont at the 19th percentile and 1 star in 2025–2026, up from the 10th percentile in 2023–2024, but it remained second-lowest among nearby schools with current rankings. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 16.2, around the middle of the local group, and 55% of students were directly certified for free meals that school year. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking for how well it serves Special Education Students rose from the 5th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 34th in 2025–2026, above Fremont’s overall 19th-percentile standing. Its ranking for how well it serves African American Students also rose, from the 5th percentile in 2024–2025 to the 20th in 2025–2026.
