Holy Family - Holy Name School, as a Catholic school in the Fall River Diocese, views education as involving the whole person in an environment of faith, hope, and love which is centered on the values of the Gospels of Jesus Christ.
We recognize each student as unique in gifts, interests and needs, as we strive to educate each child spiritually, morally, intellectually, socially, physically, and aesthetically.
