Middle Schools in Fremont Public Schools

The Fremont Public Schools district in Nebraska is home to two middle schools: Fremont Middle School and Johnson Crossing Academic Center (5-6). Both schools serve a diverse student population, with a significant Hispanic enrollment of over 40%. However, the academic performance at these schools lags behind state averages, with test scores consistently falling short in key subjects like English Language Arts and Mathematics.

While the schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, with Johnson Crossing Academic Center (5-6) boasting an impressive 13.3 ratio, this does not appear to be translating into better academic outcomes. Both schools also have high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student populations. Interestingly, the spending per student is relatively high, with Johnson Crossing Academic Center (5-6) spending over $13,000 per student, but this investment does not seem to be driving improved performance.

Overall, the data suggests that the middle schools in the Fremont Public Schools district are facing significant challenges in meeting state academic standards. While the schools serve diverse student populations, they have not been able to close the achievement gap and provide the level of education that parents and the community would expect. Further analysis and targeted interventions may be necessary to improve student outcomes and ensure that all students in the Fremont area have access to a high-quality education.
