The school was started in January 1994. It was a dream come true for the catholic Diocese of Bungoma through Busia Catholic Church in which the concern was on the provision of the girl – child education in Busia and its environment. It is now registered as both boarding and day secondary school. The school was realized due to the need to have girls’ only secondary school in the fast growing town of Busia prior to this, there was only one secondary school which was mixed.
A progressive phasing out arrangement was made so that a new site was developed into the present day Our Lady of Mercy Girls Secondary as the boys remained in Busia town ship secondary school which is currently known as St. Mathias Boys Secondary School. The church, parents, local community and all other stakeholders collaborated to progressively acquire, construct and equip the basic facilities that are there in the school to-date.
