I have really enjoyed my time at Bishop Walsh I have been a student there since PreK. I love the sense of family you have with the small class sizes. I have built many strong relationships with the people there and feel that the teachers are actually concerned with my well being and want to see me succeed. I would not say that there were any bad parts of my experience that outweighed the good. Overall I think that Bishop Walsh has prepared me to continue my education in college.

Bishop Walsh is a very welcoming environment. The teachers know every student and make it a point to help every one. While the course selection is very limited, each course is taught to its fullest to try to help every student learn as much as they can. Our sports teams are small, but usually formidable. Overall Bishop Walsh's welcoming environment, amazing teachers, and great extra circulars make it an amazing school.
