Fremont Union High School District - Student Enrollment

Student Enrollment

During the 2007 school year, there were 10,210 students in the Fremont Union High School District. In terms of race and ethnicity, the district is predominantly Asian American. European American students make up a large minority. Hispanic and Latino students are also a sizable minority. In contrast, African American students are not very numerous. During the 2007 school year, Asian American students made up 53.3% of the school district's student population. European American students made up 32.7% of the student population; Hispanics and Latinos made up 11.7% of the population. African American and American Indian students made up 2.0% and 0.4% of the population respectively.

Because the school district has recently faced a substantially large budget deficit, the district is now only enrolling residents who live within the district's boundaries. In the past, many students who do not live within the district are allowed to go to the Fremont Union High School District's schools, but now the district is closely investigating all student residences. If the student is found to be from an outside area, he or she may be expelled from school. Sometimes this policy has caused controversy among parents and teachers, but the district must maintain this policy in order to keep class sizes low.
