A Little Bit About Dr. Walsh:

This is my 25th year teaching and my 23rd year teaching at Amesbury High School.  

I loved teaching in Amesbury and the Amesbury Public School system so much that I moved my family to Amesbury in 2012, just in time for my oldest to attend kindergarden.  

I have two children who both attend school in Amesbury.

I am also currently an adjunct professor at Merrimack College and primarily teach in their Graduate School of Education and Social Policy.  I teach both on campus and online.

The following are my current degrees:

Dual Major/Degree: BA History and a BS in Elementary Education from Westfield State University.

MAT in History and a C.A.G.S. in Educational Leadership in Schooling  from Salem State University.

Ed.D. in Leadership in Education from the University of Massachusetts - Lowell.
