Why Support St. Mark's?
St. Mark's Episcopal School was founded in 1969 as an outreach ministry of St. Mark's Church. The school's mission is to provide a learning environment that fosters academic excellence, while developing the moral and spiritual character of each child. Financial support is vital to the success of St. Mark's. It is due to the charitable contributions of our families, church members, grandparents, alumni, faculty and other friends that St. Mark's is the exceptional school that it is today.
Annual Fund
A gift to the Annual Fund is the first and most important gift we ask of every member of the St. Mark's community. The entire St. Mark's Episcopal School community has the chance to support every facet of our school with the Annual Fund. Annual Fund gifts help to fund everything from the arts, athletic, and music programs to faculty salaries, professional development, and technology. Your tax-deductible gift helps to put together all the pieces to ensure St. Mark's provides for the whole child and remains competitive with regard to tuition and salaries.
Why is participation so important? Your participation is essential to assuring a solid financial future for St. Mark's Episcopal School. A high percentage of Annual Fund giving by our own community (parents, staff, grandparents, church and alumni) demonstrates the level of support from within and will often positively influence contributions from foundations and corporations.
Your Annual Fund gift, no matter the size, makes a considerable difference to St. Mark's Episcopal School.
