Dear Fremont Community,
We are writing to our Fremont community to make sure you are aware of emerging news regarding a potential new 500+ acre residential and industrial development within our Fremont School District 79 boundaries currently referred to as “Ivanhoe Farms.” While the specifics and the scope of the project are not yet available, we wanted to let you know that the Village of Mundelein has reached out to us in effort to partner in planning. We also want to assure you that we are committed to being active participants in the long-term planning process to ensure the best for our students and staff. It is a wonderful tribute to the Fremont community that our schools are such desirable places for families.
We will be joining other local leaders at the December 12 Village of Mundelein meeting to learn more about the Ivanhoe Farms development. We know there are many questions regarding the impact on the future of our school district. We are committed to keeping our Fremont community informed and involved as we learn more. We will send another letter after the December 12 Village of Mundelein meeting when there is greater clarity regarding the development’s scope and timeline.
Thank you for your continued support and enjoy a wonderful weekend.
Sincerely,
Dr. Trisha Kocanda
Superintendent of Schools
Gabriela Whipple
Board of Education President
