Intersession 2020
Intersession Week 2020 is off to a successful start with students traveling to visit iconic cities, potential colleges, and discovering treasures and adventures closer to home. This special, week-long out of classroom experience offers Mercy students a range of educational experiences that faculty and staff designed to enhance student engagement in the Critical Concerns of the Sisters of Mercy while supplementing classroom lessons. These educational adventures range in location, from on-campus, local, overnight, local/overnight hybrid, to continental U.S. travel options. Intersession week is a valuable part of a Mercy student’s high school career, with our seniors having experienced it twice in their four years.

Athletics Updates
Winter Sports Awards Banquet - Mar. 18
Save the date for Mercy's Winter Sports Awards Banquet on Wednesday, March 18. More information is forthcoming.
A Message from Coach Susan Sall:
Mercy 5k Meetups
Students, families, teachers, staff, and friends are all invited to a couple of Mercy community meet up events as we take some time for our health and well-being. There are two 5k (3.1 mile) runs coming up in the next few months and it would be a great chance for everyone to enjoy being outside together. We meet before the run to wish each other luck and then post-run to celebrate.
If you haven't run before, no problem! I have posted a blue folder in Barrett Hall with a training plan that will take you from 'Couch to 5k' by doing a combo of running and walking! Just check off the workouts starting next Monday, and you'll be ready. If you have run before, and would like to have a list of workouts, let me know and I'll get a plan to you. Grab a friend or a neighbor and get outside!
Here are the dates and links to register:
- Saturday, March 21, Zoom San Francisco $30 students, $40 adults, at the Presidio. T-shirt and medal. Register for the Run
- Sunday, April 19, McLaren Park DSE Runners $5 adults, $3 students. A challenging up/down trail run, hot chocolate/cool drinks at Coach Susan’s house after! Register for the Run
