Los Angeles's Fremont High gets a fresh start after restructuring
Los Angeles's Fremont High gets a fresh start after restructuring
Los Angeles's Fremont High School gets a fresh start today. The South L.A. school had to undergo academic restructuring because it had failed to meet the school district’s progress goals for 12 straight years.
Returning staff members – teachers and administrators - had to re-apply for their jobs. Displaced teachers were sent to other schools.
(Audio: KPCC’s Adolfo-Guzman Lopez reports live from the school.)
