  2. Where We Started • May, 2017 The City of Fremont and Fremont Unified entered into a partnership to hire a FUSE Fellow who would create a comprehensive strategic and sustainable STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Mathematics) educational plan. • A national search was conducted and Parker Thomas was hired in June 2017 with a start date of October 2, 2017. • Parker has begun the process of establishing a strategic plan, developing partnerships and identifying funding sources for a sustainable STEAM pathway in Fremont. One of the primary goals for the fellow is to help increase student engagement in the Fremont manufacturing community and identify post-graduation employment pathways. 2

Listening Tour (so far) What I Heard Who I talked to • Pockets of innovation all across 100 interviews: Educators (K-12 and the District • • Businesses want to be involved college) Parents in schools • • Outside organizations want to • Community members (ecosystem) be involved in schools Businesses • Nonprofits • Public agencies • 4 Other cities •

  5. Listening Tour (cont.) What do students need to What is advanced manufacturing? know? • “Tesla - what they do…”, • “well, lots of technologies and • advanced materials” STEAM (Science, Technology, • “biotech, for sure” Engineering, Art, Math) skills • • “it’s more advanced than what we Creative problem solving • used to do…” That the jobs exist • “six Sigma, lean manufacturing, kaizen and all that stuff…” • “it’s a rebranding of manufacturing, because now it’s more advanced” 5

  6. How might we enable the entire community to help students learn STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math) skills? 6
