Summary

Fremont Elementary is a public elementary school in Carson City, Nevada, serving 546 students in grades PK-5. The school has faced significant challenges in recent years, with its performance ranking declining from 3 stars in 2013-2014 to just 1 star in the 2023-2024 school year.

Fremont Elementary struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 16.1% to 27.6% over the past few years, well above the Carson City and Nevada averages. Academically, the school's proficiency rates in mathematics, reading, and science are consistently below the district and state averages, with particularly low performance in 5th-grade science at just 11.1% in 2023-2024. The school also faces challenges in effectively serving certain student subgroups, such as Hispanic and English Language Learner students.

Interestingly, Fremont Elementary's performance lags behind many of the nearby schools, including Dayton Elementary School in the Lyon School District and Pinon Hills Elementary School in the Douglas School District, which both outperform Fremont in academic proficiency. Despite having higher per-student spending and a similar student-teacher ratio to nearby schools, Fremont Elementary has been unable to translate these resources into improved student outcomes.
