As the tiniest town in the smallest state, Central Falls is only about one square mile. But that square mile is one of the most densely populated, home to about 20,000 residents. In 1676, Central Falls was the site of a major battle during King Philip's War -- a conflict between Native Americans and English colonists. Today, the nine colonists killed during the ambush are remembered with Jenks Park, a historic park built in 1890 and including Cogswell Tower, built on the historic Dexter's Lodge.
Today, Central Falls celebrates its history with a variety of sites, including several mills such as the Valley Falls Mill Complex and the Conant Thread Company Mills. Central Falls also features two historic districts: Central Falls Mill Historic District and South Central Falls Historic District. Residents and visitors of Central Falls enjoy the River Island Campground, a four-acre park along the Blackstone River that offers canoeing, kayaking, fishing, and hiking.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
