Is it getting better · CAASPP 2019 to 2025
Has stayed near the 62nd percentile since 2019.
Most rating sites would stop at “37% proficient” and call it done. Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design deserves a closer read. Four in five of its students qualify for free or reduced lunch (California: 64%) — and reading the numbers without that context misreads the school.
The headline number: 84.5% of students leave measurably college-ready, versus 43.0% statewide.

California’s growth results and student groups
State growth model · CDE growth model 2024–25
California's own growth model splits here — the 35th percentile in reading against the 13th in math, among high schools.
Context — never part of the Scope Score
California runs its own growth model — it follows individual children in grades 4 through 8 and compares each one against a prediction from their own prior scores. On that measure this school sits well below the middle of California high schools in reading, and the 13th in math. We show it; we don't score it.
— pts vs expected is scale-score points above or below what California's model predicted for these same children from their own prior-year scores. It is not a percentage and not a percent of anything. A typical California high school lands at −3 in reading, and the middle half of them fall between −13 and +5 — the spread is wide, so read the rank, not the sign. CDE blends two consecutive years into each published figure, so adjacent years share input data and no year-over-year trend can honestly be drawn from them. It covers grades 4-8 only, and it is not part of the Scope Score — we assessed it and left it out: it tracks school demographics roughly three times as strongly as our own growth measure does, and one published year is not enough to test how stable it is.

California follows these children individually and predicts each one's score from their own prior year. Each row is read against the same group at a typical California high school — not against zero, and not against this school's all-students figure, because the state's expectation already differs by group.

Worth a school visit
Ask what the school is working on next. Strong numbers tell you where a school is, not where it's going.
- Ask whether the tour can step into a working classroom — watch how the teacher handles a student who's stuck.
- Ask to tour while school's in session, and notice how hallways and transitions feel — culture shows up between classes, not just in them.
- Ask how the school communicates with families when a child starts to struggle.
- Ask what a typical day looks like for a new student in the first few weeks.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design a good high school?
Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design has a Scope Score of 57 out of 100, placing it in the 62nd percentile of California high schools and ranked #618 statewide. 12.1% of students exceeded the state standard on the 2025 CAASPP assessment, which is 7.7 percentage points below the California average of 19.8%. The Scope Score weights 7 dimensions for high schools: graduation rate (25%), exceeded standard (22%), college/career readiness (20%), met or exceeded (proficient) (18%), chronic absenteeism (5%), suspension rate (5%), and ELPAC English Learner proficiency (5%). Data source: California Department of Education CAASPP 2025, analyzed by SchoolScope.
What are Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design's CAASPP test scores?
On the 2025 CAASPP Smarter Balanced Assessment, 37.1% of students at Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design met or exceeded the state standard in ELA and Math combined, and 12.1% exceeded it. The gap between those numbers matters: 25.0% of students are at the proficiency floor, while 12.1% went beyond it. Most rating sites report only the combined "proficient" number. SchoolScope surfaces the exceeded-vs-met split because it shows how many students go beyond the standard rather than only meeting it. 124 student-subject combinations were assessed.
How does Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design rank in California?
Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design ranks #618 among California high schools by Scope Score, placing it in the 62nd percentile. This ranking is based on a weighted composite of 2025 CAASPP test performance (exceeded and met rates), chronic absenteeism, and suspension rate. Unlike single-number ratings, the Scope Score shows what drives the ranking so parents can decide what matters most to their family. See full methodology.
What is the attendance and school culture like at Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design?
27.4% of students at Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design are chronically absent (missing 10% or more of school days), compared to the California average of 23.1%. The suspension rate is 4.7%. SchoolScope includes these culture metrics in the Scope Score because they reflect day-to-day school experience in ways test scores alone cannot.
How does Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design compare to other schools in Pomona?
Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design scores 57/100 (62nd percentile) among California high schools. To compare with nearby schools, SchoolScope shows the same metrics side by side: exceeded rate, proficiency, growth trajectory, and school culture indicators. The school serves 597 students. Use the schools in Pomona page or the map view to compare all high schools nearby.
How does Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design serve low-income and underrepresented students?
At Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design in Pomona, 36.0% of low-income students met or exceeded the ELA standard in 2025, compared to 34.6% district-wide and 38.2% statewide. Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design outperforms its district average for low-income students by 1.4 percentage points in ELA. Other subgroups: Low-Income students (13.7% Math proficient); Hispanic students (37.1% ELA proficient). The largest proficiency gap is 32.5 percentage points for english learner students. Data source: California Department of Education, CAASPP 2024-25. 300 students tested. SchoolScope shows disaggregated test scores by demographic subgroup so you can see how a school performs for your child's specific group — not just the school-wide average. Subgroup data is context, not part of the Scope Score: we don't penalize schools for who they serve. See our equity approach.
What AP courses are offered at Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design?
Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design's teachers are authorized to teach 8 of the 40 AP subjects the College Board offers, per the 2025 - 2026 AP Course Audit: Calculus AB, Computer Science Principles, English Language and Composition, Human Geography, Macroeconomics, Spanish Language and Culture, U.S. Government and Politics, United States History. Authorization means the school may teach a course, not that a section is running this year, and it's separate from AP exam pass rates. Data source: College Board AP Course Audit, analyzed by SchoolScope.
How many students from Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design go to UC?
In fall 2025, 9 Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design graduates enrolled at University of California campuses, universitywide. That figure can't be split into a per-campus sum — students apply to several UC campuses at once, so campus-level counts don't add up to the universitywide total. UC is one destination among many: this says nothing about graduates who chose a CSU, a private college, a community college, or work, and it is a count, not a rate or a ranking. Data source: University of California Office of the President (UC Information Center), fall 2025 admissions cycle.

A closer look at the evidence
Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design: reading the evidence
Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design posts 37.1% meeting the standard — versus 43.2% statewide — with climate numbers better than most. That doesn't make it perfect. It makes it worth a visit to find what numbers can't measure.
Subject proficiency describes tested students, while graduation describes a graduating cohort. These figures are not successive stages followed by the same students.
This label means the data doesn't clearly sort the school one way or the other — ask what the school is proud of, and what it's working on.

Whole scale-score points above or below what CDE's model predicted for these same children from their own prior-year scores — not a percentage, not a percentile. Statewide a typical school lands near +1 with a spread of about 13 points either side, so read a figure against its group's own typical value, not against zero. “Not categorised” is CDE assigning no band — English Only, Recently Reclassified, and English Learners Only receive a value and no band, for every school in the state. It is not a missing number. Long-Term English Learner counts cover grades 6-8 only (CDE), so that row is not comparable to the All Students row. Most figures blend two consecutive years, so adjacent published years share input data and no trend line can honestly be drawn across them. A group absent from this table had fewer than 11 students with a growth score and was never published. Grades 4-8 only. None of this enters the Scope Score — it is more strongly correlated with school demographics than our own growth measure, and one published year is not enough to test its reliability.
