Mercer is a very small town school with lots of heart. Because it is such a small town and school, each kids gets lots of attention from teachers and all are very willing to help. However, there are negatives to being such a small school. There aren't nearly enough clubs most schools have that would help students find what interests them the most.

We have a lot of repairs that have needed to be done for a long time, specifically the roof. Technology is definitely here, but most of the computers are outdated or just completely useless. Guidance counselor is on point. Prep resources are too. Tutoring is nonexistent. Parents usually only get involved if there's issues with grades and such. Busing is fine.

When you come in you feel like family, I have seen many senior citizens there and they interact with the kids. High aca...
