June is National Safety Month
Maryville remains committed to providing safe, welcoming spaces where every child is valued, respected and empowered to succeed. During National Safety Month, we recognize the importance of fostering a culture of safety throughout our campuses.
At Walsh Academy, safety means creating an environment where students feel secure, supported and respected every day. When students feel safe, they are better able to learn, build confidence and reach their full potential.

During the ceremony, Principal Dr. Ann M. Craig encouraged students to continue believing in themselves and using their unique talents to make a difference in the world.
We are proud of all they have accomplished and look forward to seeing where their journeys take them next.
