Read Across America

On Tuesday, March 4 we celebrated with other schools across the nation, the importance of reading. Students and teachers together stopped whatever they were doing and took 15 minutes out of the day to read a favorite book.  Here are some photos of the day:

Model United Nations (UN)

On Saturday, March 1^st our Model UN team attended the Boston College High School Model UN Conference held in Boston, MA.  Twelve Mercy women attended this conference as delegates along with delegates from Xavier High School.  We had four Mercy students win awards for best position papers and as distinguished delegates:  Kanwal Ojha, Erin Beckham, Julia Marcin and Hannah Chus-Reyes.  Our winners are pictured below.  Congratulations ladies!

 

SADD (Students Against Destructive Decisions)

 

The members of SADD enjoyed listening to the MCSAAC (Middlesex County Substance Abuse Action Council) winner of the 2013 Youth Volunteer Award.  This senior from Westbrook High shared her achievements and service projects that helped to make a difference in her community.  All in attendance were inspired to be active members of their communities.
