Weibel Elementary School
Weibel Elementary School is an elementary school in Fremont, California. It is located at 45135 So. Grimmer Blvd. 94539[1]. It is one of 28 elementary schools in the city belonging to the Fremont Unified School District. Due to the 2001 Fremont Boundary Line Redrawing Controversy, Weibel is now part of the Irvington Attendance area, and goes to Irvington High School and Horner Junior High School[2].
Getting its name from Fred E. Weibel who owned vinyards in the area until the 80's and was on Fremont's school board, Weibel Elementary is well-known as the school that finishes first in standardized testing among other Fremont elementary schools.
Asians easily make up the majority of the population of the students attending Weibel as many of their parents have settled in the area working jobs in the Silicon Valley.
One of Weibel's biggest claim to fame, other than its Freeze Bell, is its Wildcat Run. Students of all grades seek donations so the staff could buy cake for the staff room and sponsors as they partake in a run around Weibel's multi-use grass area, accumulating stamps on their t-shirts and arms. Faculty and parents come out to cheer on the students in the most boring of days Weibel has to offer.
The facilities of Weibel are typically in poor shape, with battered classrooms and smelly restrooms, below average computer and science facilities, an old assembly room, and a limited playground.
Mrs. Bailey, taking the place of Mr. Namura, has one of the stricted rules in Fremont and issues suspensions for running in the hallways.
The School motto: "Wildcats Unleashed", is made by the Student Council and is often refered as "Confined Housecats". Aznweibellion 22:51, 19 March 2007 (UTC)== References ==
