Fresno, California, located in the San Joaquin Valley, is a major agricultural hub with a population of over 540,000. The Fresno Unified School District (FUSD) serves nearly 74,000 students, making it one of California’s largest. The graduation rate stands at around 84%, but reading and math proficiency remain low, often below 35%, especially in high-poverty areas. FUSD is investing in college and career readiness, dual-language immersion, and social-emotional learning to close achievement gaps. Schools like Bullard High and Edison High are working toward academic excellence. Fresno has produced figures like author William Saroyan and MLB star Aaron Judge. While education challenges persist, Fresno remains committed to uplifting students through targeted reforms and community partnerships.
