A Solid Foundation
For more than 70 years, Walsingham Academy has served Williamsburg and the surrounding area as the premier pre-K through 12 co-educational, Catholic-based independent school. Founded by the Sisters of Mercy on the principal values of compassion and service, Walsingham offers an unparalleled academic experience to students of all faiths.
