Career Day

Every other year, Mercy High School sponsors a Career Day in order to give our students the opportunity to hear about careers that they might wish to pursue. The day is filled with lots of excitement as the girls attend three sessions, and have the ability to ask questions regarding these professions!

This year's Career Day hosted 44 speakers, most of who were women in professions as far reaching as that of a Pilot, a Broadway actress, and a Defense Contractor Negotiator to name a few! Special thanks to the alumnae, parents and friends of Mercy who so graciously gave up their time to come and speak with the girls. It was truly a day to be remembered!  Click here to view photos from Career Day 2008.

If you are interested in being a speaker at our next Career Day, Spring 2010, please contact Joann Riggio, Counselor Department Chair.
