Summary:
Five high schools in ZIP code 94538 are part of Fremont Unified: Irvington High, John F. Kennedy High, Robertson High (Continuation), Young Adult Program, and Vista Alternative; four serve grades 9–12, while Vista serves grades 7–12. The most important takeaway is that academic results vary sharply among the schools, with Irvington at the top and Robertson at the bottom in every tested subject.
In 2025–2026, Irvington led with 86% proficient in English, 75% in math, and 73% in science; each result was about 37 percentage points above the state. Robertson was lowest at 15% in English, 2% in math, and 9% in science—34, 36, and 27 points below state results, respectively. Vista had a stronger English result (67%, 17 points above state) and science result (45%, 9 points above), but math was 32%, 6 points below state. Kennedy was above state in English at 58%, but below in math (32%) and science (34%). Across the four schools with scores, averages were above the state in English and science, but below it in math.
Results moved in different directions: Irvington improved in all three subjects from the prior year, while Vista declined in all three; the four-school average fell by about 3–4 points in each subject as state results rose. SchoolDigger’s statewide rankings were nearly unchanged for Irvington (49th to 48th) and Kennedy (774th to 778th), while Robertson moved from 1,651st to 1,769th and Vista from 257th to 445th. Attendance and graduation also distinguish the schools: chronic absenteeism was 11% at Irvington and 16% at Kennedy, versus 79% at Robertson, 70% at Vista, and 29% at Young Adult Program. The schools’ free/reduced lunch eligible shares in 2024–2025 ranged from 23% at Young Adult Program to 82% at Robertson; Irvington had 25.1 students per teacher, compared with 7.4 at Vista. Young Adult Program has no test scores in the supplied data, and the score comparisons cover only two years.
