Parents

Welcome to the Mercy parent community! Your support and involvement help make Mercy a place where our students thrive. We invite you to connect with other families, get involved, and become an active part of the Mercy experience.

Mercy Parent Club (MPC)
The Mercy Parent Club (MPC) brings parents and caregivers together to connect, get involved, and support the Mercy community. All parents and caregivers, including guardians, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and other family members, are automatically members of MPC.

Throughout the school year, MPC offers a variety of ways to get involved through social events, volunteer opportunities, fundraising, parent education, admissions support, and other school activities. Whether you have a little time or a lot, there's a place for you.

Meet our Parent Ambassadors

Our Parent Ambassadors are here to welcome new families, answer questions, and help you get connected. They serve as leaders within the Mercy Parent Club and are happy to help you find the right opportunities to get involved.
