Admissions Process
St. Mark's seeks to enroll well-motivated children capable of academic challenge. Applications are reviewed at enrollment time in January or as spaces become available with the earliest applications receiving first consideration. If a child is not accepted due to space limitations, the application is automatically placed with the applicants for the next school year. Applications are valid for one school year.
Inquiries
Inquiries for admission may be made directly to the Admissions Director, Ms. Amanda Grace, by email or by phone at (713) 667-7030. If preferred, it can also be done by filling out an online version of New Student Inquiry Form. An application packet and school catalog are available by calling or e-mailing the school. Applications are accepted year-round.
Age Requirements
For the Preschool 2's classes your child must be 2 by August 1 to apply for this five-morning program. For the Preschool 3's classes your child must be 3 by August 1 of the entering school year. For the Pre- Kindergarten or Kindergarten classes - your child must be 4 or 5 respectively, by August 1 of the entering school year.
Enrollment
You will be informed of your child's eligibility for enrollment upon completion of all the application requirements by enrollment time or as classroom space comes available. More information is available in the application brochure. Priority consideration is given to siblings of current St. Mark's students and children of St. Mark's Episcopal Church members. The date of application and the need to balance classes by gender are of additional consideration.
In both its admission process and the implementation of its programs, St. Mark's Episcopal School seeks to provide educational opportunities in a nondiscriminatory manner without regard to race, color, religion, or national origin.
