| Abstract: | Through its redesign journey, Fremont High School has gone from a school where families did not want to send their children to an award-winning school with a waiting list for admission. Community organizing efforts created a strong foundation of relationships between staff and families from which to build. District- and state-level funding toward community schools, Linked Learning, and dual enrollment built on that foundation to create a learning environment at Fremont in which students experience relationships of deep care and meaningful instruction that prepare them for both college and career. This brief tells the story of Fremont's journey from an isolated campus with severe underenrollment to a vibrant community school where students have access to authentic, community-connected learning and families hold power on campus.
