MISSION STATEMENT*

 

The Mercy Secondary Education Association is an organization founded by the Sisters of Mercy to provide a national forum to enhance and further the Mercy charism in secondary education.

 

Rooted in the tradition of Catherine McAuley, foundress of the Sisters of Mercy, it seeks to bond together Sisters of Mercy and their colleagues in the ministry of secondary education.

 

This educational association fosters the development of value-centered education in the Roman Catholic traditions with particular concern for young women and the poor.
