Mount Mercy Academy, accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools and a member of both the Mercy Secondary Education Association and the Network for Mercy Education, is participating in this year’s 716 Day of Giving.
The school, sponsored by the Sisters of Mercy and which has been in existence for almost 120 years, is hoping to raise funds to establish the Mount Mercy Athletics Academy. Mount Mercy Academy is restructuring the Physical Education and Health program to an all-encompassing, wellness-based curriculum. The academy activities will be designed as project-based learning in order to provide cross-curricular opportunities for all students.
Interested donors should visit give716.org to support Mount Mercy Academy’s Athletic Academy which will have a focused curriculum, access to expertise within the field, connections to the community and an independent identity.
