Summary

Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design is a public 7-12 grade high school serving about 600 students in Pomona, California, operating within the Pomona Unified school district.

The school has significant strengths, including a graduation rate of 94.4% that is higher than both the district and state averages, and it shows particular effectiveness in helping Hispanic students and English Learners succeed. In English Language Arts, students show remarkable improvement by 11th grade, nearly matching the state average. However, the school faces considerable challenges in mathematics and science, where proficiency rates are well below district and state averages, and chronic absenteeism is a concern at 26.4%. Performance can be volatile for some student groups, such as those in Special Education.

Within the Pomona Unified district, Fremont is a mid-tier option; it outperforms nearby Ganesha High in several subjects but trails behind higher-performing schools like Diamond Ranch High and Village Academy High School at Indian Hill. The school's per-student spending is among the highest in the district. When compared to high schools in neighboring, higher-performing districts like Chino Valley Unified, such as Ruben S. Ayala High, a wide gap in academic achievement becomes apparent, highlighting the impact of the broader district context.
