FUSD Tech School Petition
FUSD has spent significant amount of money to acquire the land above. It was supposed to build a school there. Over the years, it was left to the horses at one point, and otherwise vacant.
One thing is clear. The longer we wait and the more expensive the school would be. Inflation. If nothing else. It has been more than 10 years now.
This is a request to ask FUSD to form an Exploratory Committee to look into the possibility of building a Technology School at that location.

- A few points that I would like to offer:
- • There is no need for outside fields. Students can join their desired teams at nearby American. Or their home schools teams. Plenty of sports do not require a huge amount of space or fields. Students would have options.
- •2-stories buildings are already very common within our School District. We can do the same here with labs and classrooms. There would be enough space.
- • Parents can determine what kinds of programs to offer and the total number of students to accept. That would then determine the construction cost. Functions need to drive facilities.
- • I am personally interested in the emersion model. The school would cover 6 to 12 grades. Both Middle School and High School. I think that would give the students the longest amount of time in a focused environment. And the highest chance of succeeding. But that is just my opinion.
It is time for the Fremont School Board to set up an Exploratory Committee. With a wide range of representation. This is something that should be done with community participation.
If you agree, please sign this petition. Thank you.
