Personal Focus. Global Perspective.
Mercy Changes Everything.

Our Mission 

We, the community of Mercy High School Baltimore, are a private, Catholic, college preparatory school for young women of diverse backgrounds from across central Maryland. Sponsored by the Sisters of Mercy, we provide a rigorous education marked by academic excellence and personal attention. Here, students learn to communicate ideas and express themselves confidently, both individually and in collaboration with others. Mercy creates an environment where young women form habits of lifelong inquiry, critical thinking, and courageous action in a global society. In the tradition of Catherine McAuley, the founder of the Sisters of Mercy, our work reflects a commitment to hospitality, service, justice and compassion.

Discover the Mercy Difference!

Be sure to register join us for our Open House on Saturday, October 12 from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m.! This is a fantastic way for Future Mercy Girls and their families to speak with current Mercy Girls about their experiences while meeting our phenomenal faculty and exceptional admissions team. Join us to learn more about our Mercy, Catholic values, our prestigious designation as the area’s only Catholic International Baccalaureate World School, our 10 Signature Programs, our exceptional fine arts offerings, our championship athletics, our modern campus, and our comprehensive college counseling program.
