Best Public Schools in Fremont, NE

Summary:

The city of Fremont, Nebraska is home to 10 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the district, with some standout schools like Grant Elementary School and Clarmar Elementary School performing well above the district average, while many other schools struggle with lower proficiency rates and high rates of economic disadvantage.

Grant Elementary stands out as the top-performing school, with 55-75% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts and Mathematics, as well as a low student-teacher ratio of 13:1 and a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. Clarmar Elementary also performs well, with 50-60% proficiency rates. However, the majority of schools in the Fremont Public Schools district have lower performance, with proficiency rates ranging from 20-50%.

The data also reveals high rates of economic disadvantage across the district, with free and reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 39.38% at Clarmar Elementary to 81.3% at Washington Elementary. This, along with high chronic absenteeism rates and funding disparities, likely contribute to the significant performance gaps seen between schools. Addressing these systemic challenges should be a top priority for the district and community.
