Maryville Foundation Walsh Academy

Paving the Way for Alternative Career Success

The Charles H. Walsh Sr. Academy & Career Tech High School will be the first school in Illinois for students with special education needs integrating a career technical education (CTE) curriculum to enter high-demand, skilled trade careers. 

MKB Architects worked with Maryville Foundation to transform a closed, 1950’s school into a vocational & technical high school campus. A new entrance welcomes the next generation of students, who will begin their education in renovated classrooms, updated mechanical, plumbing and electrical systems, and fully-equipped vocational workshops. 

The master plan will be implemented in two to three phases, including a future classroom addition, horticultural program/greenhouse, and outdoor nature classrooms.
