The school has a bad rep with a principal who often times uses her status to make poor decisions on individual families, especially if you question her choices and integrity. Her office staff follows suit, mainly the secretary who drops the ball a lot with her job and the school does nothing about it, even after multiple complaints by multiple families. The school secretary is rude and refuses to deal with sick kids, often times sending kids back to the classroom and telling the kids they aren’t sick because she doesn’t want them in her office if they are sick. This is only one of many examples of complaining parents. If the principal or secretary have personal/outside issues with families they will treat your kids poorly. Most of their issues with people are self inflicted due to unprofessional dealings with personal businesses in the community. The teachers at this school are some of the best, but dealing with admin and front office staff is a nightmare.

We have been at this school for 3 years. Fall River Elementary has a lot of wonderful, caring teachers who are truly there to help the students achieve. They also have a great after-school program if your children need to stay after the end of the day! We love this school as parents, and our children love this school as well!
