Fall River Public Schools Participate in City Government

The city of Fall River has turned to the individuals that are affected most by school policies — the students themselves. Thirteen students have been selected from B.M.C Durfee and Diman Regional Vocational Technical high schools to participate in this new student involvement program. Seven of the students will be distributed across four different school committees, with six to act as alternates. The students are encouraged to speak at meetings, though they will have no voting power.

To the students, Mayor of Fall River Will Flanagan stated “Ask as many questions as possible and learn as much as you can. Get involved as much as you can.”

The program is reciprocal in that it will allow a group of students to experience everyday municipal government, and it will provide fresh insight to those that regularly participate in the meetings.

The launch of the program has spurred even more interest in student involvement. Because the city boards are currently full, program organizers are seeking other organizations and agencies who would like to invite students to participate. A recent Bishop Connolly High School graduate was recently invited to the Community Development Recreation board.

Finding That Special Something in Fall River Real Estate

Shopping for a home is a lot like dating. When we look for a mate, we want them to be a bit attractive – and if not, at least hold a bit of potential when it comes time to renovate. We might go on dozens of dates before finding that one person who we feel is perfect for us, might have even been made for us; just like we go to dozens of open houses before finally stepping into the parlor of our dream home. Certain features might draw us to the other sex, just like some house-hunters have a soft spot for quirky features like turrets and wrought-iron spiral staircases.

There is no simple way to find your dream home. We like to think that we are logical when deciding on something as crucial as where we want to raise a family or settle down and retire. But sometimes the littlest things can make our heart melt.

Several homes around Fall River MA area have distinct, charming details that just might make you fall head over heels.
