History

Walsh Middle School was built to relive overcrowding at Hopewell and to prevent future overcrowding at Cedar Valley. The school was first in the failed 2005 Election Bond, but was also included in the 2006 Bond in which all propositions passed. [ [https://www.roundrockisd.org/home/index.asp?page=2898 Round Rock Independent School District - 2006 Bond Program ] ] Construction on the school started in 2007. The school is expected to open in time for the 2008-2009 school year.

Awards and Recognition

Walsh Middle School will hopefully be distinguished with many awards like the district's other middle schools.
