Great experience

I love Mercy and I’m so excited for my senior year 🙂

Ups and downs

June 5, 2024

Mercy High School has its pros and cons. The class sizes are great, and the teachers are pretty good. However, the new food service is not up to par, and there have been some issues with the administration. My daughter enjoys the social life and the various clubs, but the academic pressure can be too much.

Overwhelmed with joy at how great Mercy has been for my daughter

My daughter came to Mercy at the beginning of her sophomore year. The staff were very supportive of her transition. Her classmates welcomed her with open arms, included her in every social activity, and genuinely respected her. The academics are rigorous, but the teachers are always available to help. The school spirit is amazing, and my daughter loves participating in the various clubs and activities. I couldn’t be happier with our decision to move her to Mercy.
