Overview of The Salter School
The Salter School is a Massachusetts institution of higher learning which offers career training in healthcare and business fields. The school was originally founded in 1937 as a training school for professional secretaries. Salter currently has three campuses, located in the cities of Fall River, Malden, and Tewksbury.
