Mercy High School is an all girls Catholic school. If I were looking for a high school in Omaha that is extremely Catholic, I would not choose Mercy since there are others like Skutt which are significantly more Catholic. Our sports are good to participate in, but if you want to win state, don't go to Mercy because we don't win state. I played volleyball and currently play tennis and both were very fun and a good way to make friend.

Mercy gave me a great education and allowed me to be myself. Perfect size, great teachers. I felt like they wanted me to succeed and I knew they would help me get to where I wanted to be.

Mercy High School was some of the best years of my life, the teachers, students and coaches were some of the best people I've ever met. The environment helps you expand you knowledge, mindset and opinion to help better the world. They help you find out who you are, what you like and what you're good at.

This school empowers girls and truly creates...

Three of my sisters and I have graduated from Mercy High School and I continually recommend it to friends and coworkers. I had a great education and made lasting friendships. The "teacher" who wrote that review couldn't be more off base. When my father was unemployed for six months, Mercy did not re...

I had the excellent privilege to not only be a student at Mercy High School, but also a student teacher. As a student, I felt like I was given an excellent education and all my teachers were incredible. My college classes and teachers paled in comparison. It truly showed me how much the teachers at...
