Fremont MS Family Newsletter

Good afternoon,

Big shout out to our Math and STEM Challenge winners at the Mundelein Mayor's Cup STEM Challenge. Fremont was the overall STEM Challenge and Math Challenge winner for the middle school division. We also had a middle schooler score a perfect score on the Math challenge - she was the only middle schooler to accomplish this feat!
