Wally Davis and Bill Law were a combined force throughout their Academy years from 1962 until they retired from the Board in 1988. “Bill and Wally” was almost a single word in the Academy vocabulary for many years. When people wonder, in years to come, how Brookfield Academy came into being, they will need to know about these two men and their profound belief that the good life is built on effort, knowledge, truth, freedom, faith, and responsibility.
