My experience at Mercy has been very impactful. Many of the clubs and activities, specifically the arts, have really allowed me to come out of my shell. The academics have also allowed me to learn a lot during my time at Mercy and have allowed me to feel more college ready.

Mercy high school was great in preparing me for college not only the application process but academic wise. The teacher were mostly great aside from a couple of not so great teachers but on the whole the teachers are amazing here. I would like to see more opportunities to go on retreats and traveling with the school. I also see the needs for rules but sometimes I feel like they are a little to constricting. These past four years I have built friendships like no other and although going to an all girls school can be challenging I wouldn't redo my high school experience for anything. I feel ready and prepared to move on to the next chapter of my life.

My experience at mercy has been good and bad. I've made many friends that I love dearly and have been able to create genuine friendships with. On the bad side, I feel like some of the teachers do not really pay attention to the students and do what's best for them and not for their students. With all that being said mercy has helped me grow and be a better student.

My daughter is having a great experience overall. We are not from Maryland, so we visited many schools, but Mercy was the most welcoming with the most opportunities. We love the entire community there!

I'm an alumnae of Mercy, and recently attended an event for Mercy. I was pleased to see that the same caring, thoughtful attitude that first drew me to the school, was still evident. I'm proud to be a Mercy girl and I hope more girls get the opportunity to experience the Mercy Magic!
