Dear Merion Mercy Alumnae,

It is abundantly clear that we stand together, unified in our desire to grow the legacy of our alma mater and ensure that the Merion Mercy experience is a profoundly positive, inclusive, and meaningful one that provides a powerful foundation.  We want all students to graduate and form lives filled with purpose, value, and happiness.  

The very high level of participation in the online survey (700 alumnae), in support of the Head of School search, continues to reinforce the passion and commitment of our alumnae for the spot we all love so well. We thank MMA alumnae for their time, effort, and stellar support in all of the Head of School search initiatives.

The alumnae community has another opportunity to make a meaningful contribution to the search by helping to find outstanding candidates and encouraging them to apply for this wonderful opportunity for Head of School (or forwarding their names and contact information to Carney, Sandoe, & Associates Bob Regan at bob.regan@carneysandoe.com and/or Barbara Daush at barbara.daush@carneysandoe.com). (Please click here to review the Position Profile.)

As alumnae, we are incredibly proud of our fellow alums. We are a community of women who live mercy, seek social justice, use our voices, and connect to the world in many positive ways. The next generation of mercy women needs our continued support and investment in the future of MMA.

Thank you for your dynamic participation throughout the process.                 

Sincerely,
