Fremont police department officials called a meeting with the FUSD and all secondary principals in the district, including Principal Linda Fernandez. The FPD wants to have the schools be stricter about the hat policy, to make it easier to distinguish between students and gang members.

“It is effective on all campuses in the district, not just ours. In addition, they chose hats because they wanted to be fair about it. Not everyone wears tank-tops or low-cut Dickies. Everyone wears hats,” Vice Principal Lance Miller said.

As a result of the new hat policy, people can buy a Husky Hat for $20 at the student center. All money will go to the student store account.
