📰 News we're reading
• These are the 10 best high schools in California, according to a new national ranking (secretlosangeles.com) — Mission San Jose High School in Fremont just landed No. 98 in the nation and among California's top ten high schools in U.S. News' latest rankings. The list spotlights academically intense, often STEM-focused campuses statewide, underscoring how competitive and high-performing Fremont's flagship public high school is compared with peers across California and the country. 
• Homeless counts dropped in these California counties this year (santamariatimes.com) — Fremont appears in this statewide look at homelessness through a photo of an encampment at Osgood Road and Washington Boulevard, illustrating how visible the crisis is locally. The story explains that many California counties, including Alameda, report declining homeless counts, while experts question whether stricter encampment crackdowns are simply pushing people out of sight rather than into stable housing.
