Mercy Summer Programs are part of Mercy High School, Burlingame, a Catholic college preparatory school sponsored by the Sisters of Mercy, whose mission is to educate young women of diverse religious, ethnic, social, and economic backgrounds to reverence and foster the dignity of each person, to create a community of hospitality, to lead with integrity and compassion, to strive for excellence, and to proclaim Gospel values in word and action. The programs are connected with a school community founded by the Sisters of Mercy in 1931. Angie Simonetti serves as the contact for Mercy Summer Programs.
