Fremont Public Schools

What Fremont Public Schools does

Fremont Public Schools is a K-12 public school district and government state entity operating in Fremont, Newaygo County, Michigan, having been established in 1855. It enrolls approximately 2,000 students across six instructional sites spanning preschool through adult education: Fremont High School (grades 9-12), Quest High School (an alternative at-risk program for grades 9-12), Fremont Middle School (grades 6-8), Daisy Brook Elementary (grades 3-5), Pathfinder Elementary (grades K-2), and a separate Adult Education program offering ABE, GED, and High School Completion courses. The district is led by Superintendent Brad Reyburn (also Title IX Coordinator) and governed by an elected seven-member Board of Education, with day-to-day operations managed through Directors of Operations, Technology, Transportation, Nutrition Services, Financial Services, Athletics, and the After School Program. Beyond traditional instruction, the district runs an integrated ancillary stack — Packers' Pride Childcare (newborn to age 12), an After School Program (K-6 with STEAM enrichment), a Transportation Department, Nutrition Services, and an athletics program with more than 20 high school/middle school teams and over 30 clubs — under a unified 'Packer Nation' brand identity.

The district's operating model is platform-plus-programs: a central Student Information System (PowerSchool, migrated from Skyward in summer 2025) underpins grades, attendance, report cards, and the parent/student portal; instruction is delivered through the six schools with above-state-average M-STEP and SAT outcomes and a tuition-free Newaygo County Area Promise Zone associate-degree pathway at partner institutions. Technology delivery is consolidated through a Packer Portal single sign-on that federates Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, integrates Google Classroom and Microsoft Teams, and exposes Google Translate site-wide. No proprietary APIs, models, or developer-facing platforms are documented; procurement is standard third-party SaaS (PowerSchool, Meal Magic/Nutrislice, Final Forms, Big Teams, BSN Sports, Google Translate), supported by an in-house Technology Department that manages networks, classroom A/V, telephones, and PA systems across all district buildings.

Because it is a government entity, Fremont Public Schools does not earn commercial revenue. Operating funds are sourced primarily from Michigan state per-pupil foundation allowance, federal categorical grants (Title I, IDEA), voter-approved local property taxes (including a 2025 Sinking Fund for infrastructure), federal meal-program reimbursements (universal eligibility for 2025-26), and modest fee-based revenue from the After School Program and Packers' Pride Childcare. Enrollment is administered through direct in-district registration supplemented by Schools of Choice 105 (in-county) and 105c (inter-district) application windows, with outreach via the district website, Facebook (FPSMI), the PowerSchool parent portal, RSS alerts, and a community-wide strategic planning process. Marketing language has been deliberately avoided in this description; no products are sold commercially.
