    Fremont was a wonderful school with skilled teachers and age-appropriate and challenging courses offered. Throughout my elementary and intermediate experience, I especially enjoyed participating in the unique Multi-Age Program (MAP) where I gained maturity and student mentors at a young age.

    My child likes the teachers, so they seem to relate well to the students and create a pretty positive atmosphere. The teachers seem happy at school and supported by the administration, and when teachers are happy, that creates a less stressful learning environment for students (a big change from the Intermediate School). The ideas about grades and equity of work are very traditional, however. There needs to be more differentiation based on students' needs, interest, and learning profiles. There seems to be a general attitude that "fair" equals "everyone does the same thing," instead of "fair" equals "each student gets what they need to learn." There is a punitive attitude towards students in terms of the executive functioning program, which mostly seems to be based on negative feedback, such as points off for late work, forgetting to put a name on the top of the paper, etc. Parents are sent a clear message to "butt out."
    Volunteer activities seem limited to students in National Junior Honor Society and Student Council - the student leaders and high achievers. It would be nice to see more opportunities for all students. Lunch time is more laid back than the Intermediate School, with more time to allow students to actually eat their entire meal and socialize, too. They also eat with the entire grade level, which they didn't get to do in earlier grades. After school "clubs" are not student-led interest groups; rather, they are teacher led enrichment activities such as technology club, science club, jazz band, choir guys group, and after school sports. However, they are of good quality. They also offer a few dances each year.
