Fall River officials remind drivers to obey school-zone rules; district lists openings
Summary
City traffic director issued a school-zone safety reminder as the school year begins and Fall River Public Schools posted multiple job openings for teachers, paraprofessionals and support staff.
Laura Ferrera, Fall River27s director of traffic and parking, used a public-service segment to remind drivers about school-zone safety and state-enforced 20 mph speed limits; she urged motorists to wait for crossing guards and to use crosswalks. "20 mile per hour speed limits are strictly enforced as mandated by state law," Ferrera said on the broadcast and provided a city contact number for concerns.
The Fall River Public Schools also aired a short announcement listing hiring needs across positions including teachers, paraprofessionals, custodial staff and food service, and directing applicants to the district HR office and fallriverschools.org for postings. The spots were promotional and informational rather than part of the election discussion.
Both messages were presented as public-service announcements during the election-night broadcast; officials emphasized safety and staffing needs heading into the school year.
