TOURS & SHADOW VISITS - Available by appointment year round. As a shadow visitor, a prospective student will spend the day going class-to-class with a current student. It's a great way to meet other students and get to know the teachers as well.

OPEN HOUSE - Mercy hosts a fall Open House on October 26, 2006, and a spring Open House on April 1, 2007. Enjoy group tours, classroom presentations, and an opportunity to mingle with students, teachers and parents.

ENTRANCE EXAM - The entrance exam for Catholic secondary schools is the first Saturday in December, from 8:30am to noon. Pre-registration is encouraged. If a prospective student is not available on that date, contact the Admissions office for alternative test dates.
