Mercy Education
Mercy Education unites Catholic schools across the Americas that carry forward the charism of Catherine McAuley — nurturing communities that develop highly competent, deeply compassionate leaders ready to serve a vulnerable world. In Jamaica, the Sisters of Mercy sponsor nine schools built on this same foundation, from early childhood through vocational training.
