STUDENT SCHEDULES & REQUIRED FORMS |
|
The 2022-23 student schedules will be posted on PowerSchool Wednesday, August 10 after 3pm. As a reminder, all families must be sure all required forms, physical and immunization records for incoming students are submitted on FinalForms and your student(s) billing account (including iPad and tuition) is current in order to access Mercy student email, course schedules and book purchasing.
-
Mercy utilizes FinalForms for required student record information. FinalForms allows you to electronically complete and sign enrollment, back-to-school, and athletic participation forms for your daughter(s). New parents should have received an account confirmation email from FinalForms in July. From this email, please click the registration link and follow the steps to login and access your student(s). Returning parents, your account information is the same as last year. If you haven’t already done so, we kindly request you complete your FinalForms submission as soon as possible. If you have any FinalForms questions, please email Kate Scalzi at kmscalzi@mhsmi.org.
-
If you have questions regarding your daughter's Student Billing account, please login to your Smart Tuition account or contact Laura Weller at 248-893-3546 in the Business Office on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday between 9am and 2pm.
-
If you are unable to access PowerSchool using your username and password, try resetting your password using the "Having Trouble Signing In?" link. Once in PowerSchool, the "Grades & Attendance" icon will give the list of classes for the whole school year. The "Exp" column lists the hour the class meets. To see a matrix view for the first semester with room numbers click the "My Schedule" icon. Any periods not listed are unscheduled periods.
Schedules were reviewed by counselors to resolve any known issues. Please have your daughter email her counselor if there is a "true" issue with her schedule (such as an incorrect course, course not scheduled or full year courses not scheduled all year).
Please note: The master schedule was built (sections and staffing) based on student course selections made in the spring. Alternates, at times, were used to complete schedules when necessary. Students with unresolved conflicts in their schedules were emailed. Please have your daughter check for an email from the Counseling Office regarding a schedule conflict (current students) or from the Admissions Office (new students) before emailing her counselor. The only other schedule changes counselors will handle, the first week of school, are straight drops (except AP or Honors courses per contract signed to enroll) or adds (if space is available). Schedules will not be rearranged to accommodate a "change of mind."

The BNC K-12 powered by MBS Virtual Bookstore will go live on Friday, August 12 and the free shipping runs August 12 - August 26, 2022. BNC K-12 powered by MBS has worked hard with our Mercy Staff to provide a comprehensive list of books needed for your daughter's courses.
Shop by Schedule enables students to enter their Mercy Student ID to access their entire schedule's course materials on the Virtual Bookstore. This allows your daughter to add all of her course materials to her shopping cart at one time, eliminating the need to select each course individually. Please note the shop by schedule feature is only available for students who have completed required school forms and current billing account as of Wednesday, August 10.
Shop by Course is also available using your student schedule. Feel free to experience this easy and convenient ordering method by visiting our BNC K-12 powered by MBS Virtual Bookstore and try it out for yourself!
- Click the "Let's Get Started" button on Mercy's Virtual Bookstore.
- Under "Shop by Schedule", enter your student ID number.
- Confirm that you are that Mercy Student - click "Continue."
- You'll see your course materials and can select items to check out when ready!
Take advantage of digital formats and free shipping offers! Since every Mercy student will have an iPad to facilitate her learning, consider digital formats in lieu of a hardbound textbook. We really hope students take advantage of the many digital book options available; however, please read and follow the Teacher Course Messages listed and carefully check your order details before checkout.
Please note that some Math and Science online course books will be acquired once school begins using an access code provided directly from teachers and will be billed to the student's tuition account. English teachers may provide a list of books that students will purchase and download throughout the school year.
Contact our MBS books liaison Kelly Bickes at kabickes@mhsmi.org with book ordering questions.
