Welcome Message
Dear Parent/Guardian,
We wish to take this opportunity to welcome you to our website. Fall River
strives to provide the finest educational program for all children who
enroll in our public schools. We realize that children entering our school system arrive with diverse
needs and value systems. Therefore, the Fall River Public Schools
offer parents an opportunity to choose, within established guidelines,
the school their children will attend.
This website will provide you with information about registering and/or
transferring your child in the Fall River Public Schools. In addition,
it outlines the priorities in student assignments. Individual
Elementary School brochures are available at the Parent Information
Center.
We will be happy
to help you with the process of making an informed choice of schools for your child.
