About	Mr. Freschet was born in Italy in 1927. Here is an excerpt from Mr. Frechet's Legacy obituary: "Fuzzy attended San Mateo High School...Fuzzy earned his teaching degree from S.F. State College. He taught at Aragon High School for several years, went on to get his Doctorate at Washington State University, and returned to Aragon as Coordinator of Flexible Scheduling. There, he implemented 'Block Scheduling' which was a pioneer model that many high schools use today." There's a quote from teacher Judy Cotter about "Fuz" (as she called him) in this obituary.
