Summary

Fremont Elementary School is a K–4 school serving 391 students in the small town of Fremont, Indiana, in the northeastern corner of the state, and it belongs to Fremont Community Schools. In 2025–2026, the school ranked 373rd of 1,015 Indiana elementary schools — the 63rd percentile, with 3 stars. Its district ranks much higher: 62nd of 374 districts, the 83rd percentile with 4 stars. That gap is worth noting, since it suggests Fremont Elementary sits inside a strong district even though the school's own rating is a bit lower than the district's overall standing. Historically the school has been steady, mostly earning 3 stars, with a 2-star year in 2018–2019 and a 4-star year in 2016–2017.

Only Hamilton Community Elementary School comes close nearby at 5.8%, while Hendry Park Elementary School, Ryan Park Elementary School, Prairie Heights Elementary School and Carlin Park Elementary School all run higher. Science proficiency is 60%, tied with Hamilton for the best in the nearby group and well above the state's 43.8% fourth-grade figure. ELA sits at 43.86%, second locally behind Ryan Park's 47.15%, and math at 48.54%.

The main academic soft spot is fourth-grade math: 42% versus the state's 52%, even though third-grade math is strong at 57.75% against the state's 51.9%. Fremont is comparatively well resourced, spending $14,264 per student with an 11.6 student-teacher ratio — the lowest locally, tied with Hamilton — and a moderate 44.25% free/reduced lunch rate.

Open Quote There is a big problem with bullying and the administration doesn't seem to want to deal with it. My child tried report being bullied to the office after class and got in trouble for reporting it in an inappropriate time. There is a lot of parents who have had the same problems with trying to get the school to do anything about this. Close Quote
