Fremont USD Places Bond Issue On November Ballot

FREMONT, CA — Final preparations are underway for the new school year. Classes start Wednesday in Fremont Unified School District.

While the focus of parents, students, teachers, principals and other staff is on the start of school, the district is looking to the future as the Fremont Unified School District Board of Trustees unanimously approved a resolution last Monday night to place an education bond measure on the November 2024 ballot.

The proposed $919,000,000 bond would cost voters 4.9 cents per $100 of assessed valuation. According to the district, the bond measure would be used to update classrooms, technology and equipment, science and computer labs, and libraries in the Fremont Unified School District.

“The Fremont Unified School District is among the lowest funded districts in Alameda County,” said Superintendent Erik Burmeister. "This measure would provide our local schools a chance to catch up to where other districts are now, and help maintain the district's excellence and status as a destination for families.”
