Our Lady Of Mercy Academy
- Founded in 1928 as a Catholic College preparatory school for young women, Our Lady of Mercy Academy is dedicated to providing a comprehensive education permeated with the charism of Catherine McAuley, foundress of the Sisters of Mercy.
- In response to the challenge of the Gospel, the faculty and staff of our Lady of Mercy Academy work to educate students in a holistic fashion within a compassionate environment of reverence for one another and for the world.
- Each student is challenged to develop her God-given gifts thus empowering the young woman to become an authentic witness of Mercy in the global community of the 21st century.
- The philosophy of Our Lady of Mercy Academy is based on the Church’s threefold mission: to impart the message of Jesus, to advance the building of Christian community, and to bear witness to the Gospel message.
