What’s Up, Fremont High School?
Nov 2017
National Honor Society
Fremont National Honor Society is off to a great start this year. Our Induction Ceremony was held on October 12th. Former NFL Tight End, Cam Quayle, spoke to us about learning from failure and turning those failures into success. Currently our NHS members are working to raise $800 for UNICEF. With every $400 donation, UNICEF is able to install a clean water pump in villages in Africa and other underdeveloped parts of the world. Our goal will allow us to provide clean water to two villages that currently have to pull water out of nearby rivers. Fremont has 220 National Honor members.

German
Fremont hosted students from Einbeck, Germany fall quarter. Students from the Goethe school stayed in the homes of our students and attended class with them. The German students enjoyed the culture and climate of Fremont High very much and most of them loved going to the Homecoming dance and participating in the Silverwolf community. The American students were able to practice their German and learn about the culture of
Germany.
