Fremont Middle School

Summary:

Fremont Middle School is a public middle school serving 445 students in grades 6-8 in Fremont, Michigan, which is part of the Fremont Public School District. The school consistently outperforms the state average in academic proficiency, with strong performance across various student subgroups, but has seen an increase in chronic absenteeism in recent years.

Fremont Middle School's academic performance is a standout, with 48.9% of 6th graders and 45.6% of 7th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state averages of 37.5% and 37.9%, respectively. In math, 36.9% of 6th graders and 28.6% of 7th graders at Fremont Middle School were proficient or better, outpacing the state averages of 31% and 32.1%. The school's performance on student subgroups, such as female, Hispanic, and White students, is also stronger than nearby schools like Whitehall Middle School and Kent City Middle School.

While Fremont Middle School's chronic absenteeism rate has increased from 13% in 2018-2019 to 28% in 2022-2023, it is still lower than the nearby White Cloud Junior High School (26.5%) and Whitehall Middle School (27%). The school's relatively high spending per student, at $14,505 compared to the state average of $12,000, may contribute to its strong academic performance, but the district will need to address the chronic absenteeism issue to ensure continued student success.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
