My Son's Spring Break Nightmare: What This Mom Wants Parents to Know Before our 20-year old twin sons went on their spring break trip, we told them to stay together, keep their eyes and ears open. That wasn't enough.

I was sorry to learn of the planned closing of Our Lady of Mercy Academy. Please keep the students, teachers, staff, alumni and Sisters of Mercy in your prayers.

Merry Christmas

Thinking of OLMS connected students taking their Catholic High School entrance test today. Believe in yourself and use the gifts God has given you.

Correction to earlier post about FEMA Alert

If a phone is off before the test alert is sent and not turned back on until after the WEA Test expires (approximately 30 minutes), the phone should not get the test message.9 hours ago

FEMA and FCC Plan Nationwide Emergency Alert Test for Oct. 4; Test Messages Will be Sent to All TVs, Radios and Cell Phones
Test is planned for tomorrow, October 4th, starting at 2:20PM.

It is suggested that:
1. Those who live in an abusive situation and have a “safe phone” silence that phone prior to the scheduled alert.
2. Parents and teachers should explain to students that the test is scheduled so they are aware.
3. Families and neighbors should be sure elderly/in-firmed are aware of the test as well.

Praying for those who died and for all those who were touched by this tragedy.

Good Afternoon- OLMS has another saint in heaven.

Sr. Mary Albert passed away last evening. Please remember Sister Albert, her family and the Sisters of Mercy in your prayers.

Viewing: Our Lady of Mercy Church -Monday. 2-4

As a new school year begins, May God Bless former OLMS students, teachers, parents and supporters. May students of every age use their God given gifts to grow in faith, knowledge and self-confidence.

May teachers provide an environment that supports learning and the wellbeing of all students. May teachers, students and parents share a mutual respect.

May parents, a child’s first teachers, serve as role models, supporters and sources of inspiration for their children during this next path on their life’s journey.

May God Bless you all!
