  • Veterans Memorial School is an outstanding school with dedicated staff as well as an excellent principal. I have had the priveledge to substitute teach at Veteran's and I can assure you that all of teachers and staff share the same vision of providing an excellent education to your children. No matter what school I have taught in I am proud to be a part of such an exemplary school system who put the children first to become successful. From the Superintendent, to all the Principals within Central Falls to the teachers and the support staff... all personel treat everyone with respect and have one goal to work together to guide your children to become lifelong learners and productive citizens. So come to Central Falls and meet all of us we will be happy to welcome you into our schools and soon you will make Central Falls as much a part of your lives as we have. Thank you,

  • I think the lunch aide in Veterans had a total injustice done to her. She gave eight years to this school. She loved her job and most of all the children. She took time to listen to them if they had a problem. She even brought clothes from home to give to the children. They really appreciated her. Instead of getting rid of her...they should look at the rest of the lunch aides that don't and i repeat..don't do their jobs or care at all about the children.
