Life at Mercy High School
At Mercy High School, students get involved! With social activities, sports, concerts, clubs, dances and proms, service projects, assemblies, musicals and plays, and class trips and events, there is always something to do! Mercy provides endless opportunities for girls to explore their interests, develop their special talents, learn to lead, discover new experiences, give to others and have fun!
Every Mercy student is encouraged to participate in class, school and club activities to enhance her high school experience. There is something for everyone at Mercy. Students are also encouraged to form new clubs to match their particular interests and skills.
Learning to Lead
Mercy High School prepares young women to be leaders - leaders in the classroom, in campus ministry, on the athletic fields, in community service, and in their class, club, and school activities. Each summer, members of the new senior class are invited to participate in Go The Mile, an overnight experience designed to prepare them to be the leaders in their school. During Go The Mile, the seniors write the mission statement that will guide them as leaders during the coming school year.
