Villa Walsh Academy offers a college preparatory Catholic school education for young women in Grades 7 through 12. Steadfast in its commitment to educate young women as envisioned by St. Lucy Filippini, the founder of The Institute of the Religious Teachers Filippini, Villa Walsh Academy’s community seeks to inspire our young women to expand their intellectual breadth and depth, to enhance their sense of local and global concern, and to empower them to influence their world in a Christian manner.
Set on a picturesque campus in Morristown, New Jersey, Villa Walsh Academy sits on 120 acres of rolling hills. The magnificent 19th century Gillespie Estate is home to the Religious Teachers Fillipini as well as administrative offices. Academic buildings, a state-of-the-art athletic center, St. Lucy Chapel, expansive classrooms, auditoriums and fully-equipped science labs round out the top-notch facilities Villa Walsh Academy offers its students.
The 100-year-old tower is a landmark of beauty and reaches six stories to provide a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside. Originally a source of water for the estate, The Tower stands as a treasured landmark upon the highest point in Morristown.
