We believe EVERY girl deserves a quality, faith- based education.
Mercy High School was the 1st school a Negotiated Tuition Program in Omaha. We coined the term and have been faithfully serving families under this model for over 30 years. Aligned with our mission, no girl will be denied a Mercy education because of her family's financial situation.
