"We believe Waldron Mercy serves as an extension of the beliefs and values that we teach in our home. We continue to support Waldron Mercy in its mission to develop well-rounded students in an academically-challenging environment within a faith-based community."

Tiger Pride Society, young alumni chair
"Waldron is a second home to me. Many of my fondest memories and lifelong friends were made at Merion and then Waldron Mercy Academy. Waldron gave me so much and I’m happy to give back so others may experience the Mercy tradition. That tradition of compassion, kindness and friendship inspire me every day."

Waldron Mercy Academy has a vibrant spiritual life that encourages our community to root themselves in their relationship with God. Morning prayer helps to center students, faculty and staff as we begin our day. Prayer services and liturgies allow us to celebrate special feast days and seasons of the liturgical year, and to reflect upon our call to justice and Mercy. Prayer services occur in the midst of our Wednesday Community Gatherings, marking occasions such as the Feast of All Souls, the season of Advent, or Peace and Justice Day. We also gather as a community to celebrate liturgy on special days such as Mercy Day (September 24), Advent, and Ascension Thursday. Students and faculty prepare our liturgies and act as ministers of the Word, song and Eucharist.
Liturgical Music Group
Sixth to eighth grade WMA students lead our singing at liturgies and prayer services.
Sacraments
With great joy we accompany our students in their faith formation. The sacramental program is integrated into our Religious Education curriculum. Students are prepared to receive the sacraments of Reconciliation and Eucharist in grade two and receive this with the school community. Confirmation preparation occurs in grade five and students receive this sacrament with their parish community.
