Good afternoon,

We will have a performance of Wipeout! open to the public on Friday, April 10th beginning at 6:30 pm in the MS Big Gym. Entrance is $5.00 at the door. Break a leg to all cast and crew!

Students did a great job with all of the different IAR and musical schedules these last couple of weeks. Please note that if your student was absent during an IAR day, Mr. Atchley will be organizing make-up sessions. Families will not receive their student's IAR report until the 26-27 school year.

8th Grade Slideshow

Hello 8th Grade parents!

We want to celebrate your kids and the fun memories they’ve made over the years. We are putting together a slideshow to be shown during the 8th grade dance. Help them walk down memory lane with this fun tribute to their time here at Fremont. We thank you in advance for your help with this.

What type of pictures we are looking for…..

Pictures with just your child (example: baby picture, first day of kindergarten, birthday, special moments, funny memory)
Pictures with Fremont friends (past students are ok)
Pictures of Fremont sporting events
Pictures of class parties, school field trips, other school events or clubs

What type of pictures not to include….

Pictures with family
Pictures with non-Fremont friends

How to share your memories….

Name each picture with the child's first initial, last name, and picture number (1, 2, 3, etc.)
How to share: email them to fremontclassof2026@gmail.com
Please only share 10 pictures per student

All pictures are due no later than April 11th to give us plenty of time to compile all the memories. Thanks for your help in making this a special time for each and every 8th grader!
