"I'm a 9th grader at Walsingham Academy and have been here since Pre-K 3. From the very beginning, every teacher I've had has been incredibly kind and welcoming. Whenever someone asks who my favorite teacher is, I honestly can't choose—each one has been amazing. Walsingham has a warm, supportive community and hosts fun events throughout the year like movie nights, spirit nights, and sports games. I truly love being a part of Walsingham!"
