Day of Discovery
Mercy High School
9:00 am - 1:00 pm

"Discover Mercy" is a morning program offered for fifth, sixth and seventh grade girls and their parents to get their first look at Mercy by enjoying activities, student performances and informal conversations with Mercy students, parents, administrators and faculty.  The event is scheduled for Saturday, March 3, 2018 from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. 
  
During "Discover Mercy," girls have the opportunity to spend time in the classrooms with faculty and students while attending "classes" such as Mad about Math, Field Hockey Clinic, Paint the Town (an introduction to French language and culture) and Mock Trial to name a few options.  All the choices are listed on the registration page. Here is the link: Discover Mercy. Meanwhile, parents may attend an informal question and answer session and participate in programs designed especially for them.
  
Following the morning program, everyone is invited to lunch in the cafeteria and experience a performance by the Mercy/Xavier "Vocal Dimension" Show Choir!  Mercy Student Ambassadors are available to lead tours of the school at any time during the morning, including a stop at the school store.
