I have lived in this area for 37 years and sent all 6 of my children to Fremont. There has always been good teachers there for my children. I'm sure things have changed some with the growth of this neighborhood, but I have not heard of very many complaints from my neighbors. They also have good PTA and family involvement.

I have 2 children in Fremont and have had a pretty good experiance. However the class sizes are big. My childen have never been enrolled in a class with less then 29 students and there was only 29 for a very short time. The class sizes are usually more then 30. Which has taken a toll on my 4th grader.

I feel the best way to rank a school is looking at your child's smile and being able to establish a relation between his social development (how he gets along with teacher, classmates and at home) and his academic development (grade performance, intellectual growth, etc.) Fremont has been so wonderful for our child to the point that we have preferred to stay in the North Taylorsville neighborhood until he finishes elementary school before relocating to Draper where we were about buy a home. We will not risk Stefano's wonderful progress moving him to another school. The Ruiz Family

I have a daughter in her second year at Fremont Elem. and I have to say, it is a wonderful school with loving teachers and staff. The parents are very involved in their children's education, and the administration does all it can to make school fun for its students. This neighborhood that goes to Fremont is great, too. Everyone is so friendly, and the neighbors watch out for each other.

About the tests


In 2009-2010 Utah used the Utah Criterion-Referenced Test (CRT) to test students in grades 1 through 11 in language arts, in grades 1 through 7 in math, in grades 4 through 9 in science and upon completion of certain courses in grades 8 through 11. The results displayed on GreatSchools profiles are for all grades combined for each subject. The CRT is a standards-based testing program, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Utah. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
