![]() Congratulations to Maggie Dugoni one of the co-presidents of the Red Cross Club, for being the recipient of an American Red Cross Scholarship award. Co-presidents Maggie and Eme Dawes have worked very hard to host two fantastic blood drives during the 2018-2019 school year, which collected many units of blood and saved many lives! The work and dedication from not only the co-presidents, but all of the members of the club and the members of the Mercy community in the form of donations is exemplary. Thank you to all!
Spring Uniform Update Wishing you all a happy spring! As weather starts to get sunny and warm, it's time to do away with students wearing non-mercy outerwear. When we return from Spring Break, students are asked to dress only in Mercy sweatshirts and Mercy fleece over their uniform polo. If it is raining, students can wear rain boots and a water proof jackets in Mercy approved colors. Any student dressed out of uniform will receive an infraction.
