GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Compared to other schools in the area, Fall River is up-standing. The community is loving and the faculty truly care about the students. Because of the area, there aren't many resources, but the teachers do their best. Going to school every day wasn't a dreadful thing like it was at other schools I had attended previously.

Fall River Jr. Sr. High School a great school, but it is often held back by its size. It is an extremely rural school, and the student body consists of about 200 individuals. This means it tends to lack in opportunities. There is not much variety in terms or clubs and other extracurricular activities. The 2016-17 school year was the first time in many years that non-online AP classes were available.

My experience with Fall River Junior-Senior High School is still so far great. I've attended the school since the 7th grade. We may be a small school but that doesn't stop us from getting a quality education. The community is very supportive of our high school. They provided us Chromebooks, new lockers, always cheering us on when we play sports, etc. Our teachers and staff always try to be supportive for they want us to succeed. I am glad I attend this high school.
