Principals Message

Dear Fremont Academy Students,

As we look ahead to the 2025-2026 academic year at Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design, I am filled with tremendous excitement for the opportunities and growth that await us. Our vision to "Advance Resilient Scholars through The Design Process" will continue to guide us as we embark on another year of innovation, creativity, and academic excellence.

Just as engineers approach each challenge methodically – analyzing, ideating, prototyping, and refining – you will apply these same principles to your academic and personal journeys in the coming year. You will discover that setbacks are not failures but rather iterations in your ongoing development. This resilience, coupled with your design thinking mindset, will prepare you for the exciting challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.

Throughout the 2025-2026 school year, you will experience firsthand how the design process extends far beyond engineering classes. The design process serves as a powerful framework for approaching life's challenges: identifying problems, brainstorming solutions, testing ideas, and continuously improving. Whether you're advancing to the next grade level, preparing for college applications, exploring career paths, or charting your unique course, these skills will form the foundation for your success.

To our incoming seniors: This year, you will have the opportunity to embody what it means to be resilient scholars. You will navigate new challenges, adapt to evolving circumstances, and emerge stronger than ever. As you prepare for life beyond our classrooms, remember that you are not just students – you are designers of your own future. The same principles that will guide you through complex classroom projects and assignments will help you design the life you envision.

To all our returning and new students: Let this upcoming year be your canvas for innovation. You will have countless opportunities to embrace our vision and create your own remarkable achievements. Your dedication will demonstrate that with persistence, creativity, and resilience, you can transform your aspirations into reality.

Remember, the most innovative designs often emerge from the most challenging constraints. As we move forward together, we will embrace obstacles as opportunities for growth. Your future, like any well-executed design, will require multiple iterations, continuous refinement, and unwavering determination.

The world needs more resilient problem-solvers, innovative thinkers, and determined designers. You – the scholars of Fremont Academy – are precisely that. Continue to develop and apply your design thinking skills to every challenge you encounter in the year ahead. Your future is not something that simply happens to you; it's something you will actively design and create.

With great excitement and optimism for the 2025-2026 academic year,

Roger Fasting
Principal Fremont Academy of Engineering and Design
