Student Life
Wellness
A Year of Study
Walsh Jesuit decided to widen the scope of its examination beyond simply drug and alcohol or emotional wellness issues.
Identifying cultural movements and reviewing community needs, WJ broadened our goal to encompass the overall wellness of our student body. Therefore, we expanded our approach to look at the emotional, physical, social, intellectual & spiritual wellness of students.
WJ formed a Parent Wellness Committee, a Faculty/Staff Wellness Committee & a student wellness panel to look at the overall wellness of students and the supportive structures necessary for the promotion of such wellness. In addition to creating educational opportunities for faculty/staff members and students, these committees attempted to examine policies and programs.

The Parent Wellness Committee was tasked with reviewing the drug and alcohol policy. The Faculty/Staff Wellness Committee attempted to understand attitudes surrounding student emotional wellness, specifically issues of stress and anxiety. Stemming from the results of the Parent and Student Attitude Surveys on Drugs/Alcohol and the Student Emotional Wellness Survey came conversations about how the school could best meet the diverse needs of its student body and parent community.
The Wellness initiatives are intended to further the overall emotional, physical, social, intellectual, and spiritual wellness at Walsh Jesuit. Modifications and additions are still being made on a consistent basis, as this is an ongoing commitment to work with parents, faculty/staff members and students to proactively attend to the wellness needs of everyone.
Our Mission
As a Christ-centered community, we strive to be Men and Women for and with Others.
