Academics

Academics at Gwynedd Mercy Academy High School are rigorous. We hold high standards and expectations, but grades are not the only measure of whether our students are learning. It's about the process and the challenge of opening the mind to new ideas and concepts. It's mastering new skills and the exciting realization of accomplishment. Our students build strong academic skills in research, writing, time management, organization and critical thinking. This combination helps Gwynedd girls develop as independent thinkers, ready to achieve in college and beyond.

All courses at Gwynedd Mercy Academy High School are college prep, with numerous opportunities to take honors and AP courses. Now more than ever, 21st century learners must understand the importance of collaboration. The driving force behind everything we do is student participation. Our faculty members are mentors and facilitators - not solely lecturers. Our girls take full advantage of the integration of technology into the classroom, with flexible work spaces and interactive technology like SMART resources, computers, and electronic devices.
