Middle Schools in Fall River

The 3 middle schools located in Fall River, Massachusetts serve students in grades 6-8. Based on the available data, these schools demonstrate consistently low academic performance, with proficiency rates well below the state average on standardized tests across multiple subject areas.

None of the 3 middle schools - Morton Middle, Matthew J Kuss Middle, and Talbot Innovation School - appear to be standout performers. All 3 schools are ranked in the bottom half of Massachusetts middle schools by SchoolDigger, with ratings of 1 or 0 stars out of 5. Proficiency rates in mathematics and science are particularly low, ranging from 13.09% to 14.46% compared to the state average of 40.91%.

Despite higher-than-average spending per student and relatively low student-teacher ratios, the schools continue to struggle to improve student outcomes. This suggests that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution, and a more comprehensive approach to resource allocation and program implementation may be necessary to address the systemic challenges within the Fall River school district.
