FREMONT, CA – The Fremont Unified School District will not return to the classroom this school year, due to negotiations with the teachers union that have not yet been resolved. In a letter Wednesday, Superintendent CJ Cammack said the school district has not been able to reach an agreement with the teachers union for returning to school. The district and union have not been able to agree on key issues such as staffing, the scope of grade levels eligible for a full return, and additional compensation for employees, Cammack said. "The District is moving on from negotiations of a return to campus under a hybrid model," Cammack said in the letter. "The District will focus our action and efforts toward bringing more students on campus through the rapid expansion of our existing learning hubs." Looking forward to the start of the next school year, Cammack said the district continues to plan for a full return to in-person instruction. More information on this topic will be shared at the April 21 Board of Education meeting.
