Dear Mercy Students & Parents,

We thank you for your patience as we worked to fairly formulate Student Cohort Groups for our Hybrid Learning Model. The process began with an alphabetical split, followed by a review of specific courses that needed one Cohort or the other. Carpool requests received by August 4, were then used to balance each and every section of every class that meets first semester. The ultimate goal was to have an even split in every classroom for social distancing to keep our community safe and healthy.

The Student Cohort Groups are now complete and available in PowerSchool. To identify your Cohort, please look at the two letters listed after your last name in PowerSchool. There will either be a KC or SF listed which indicates your Cohort Group. All students with KC are Cohort A and will attend classes in person at Mercy on Monday and Thursday. Students with SF are Cohort B and will attend classes in person at Mercy on Tuesday and Friday. 

Please note that we are unable to make changes to Cohort Groups. One change affects many classes and impacts the safety of students and each teacher in the classroom. THANK YOU for your understanding and support as we did our best to accommodate all requests. 

Be sure to look for a back-to-school welcome communication early next week with important information and reminders as we begin our 2020-21 school year. We hope you enjoy the remaining days of summer and we look forward to seeing all of our students next week!

In Mercy,
Mercy Administrative Team
