About

We are a community engaged and purposefully small, creating an environment where every child is known and celebrated.

Our Mission

The community of St. Mark's Episcopal School celebrates the uniqueness of each child. We are stewards of our students' intellectual curiosity, faith, and passion for discovery. We cultivate joy, playfulness, and growth in a child-centered environment.

 

Our Advantage

Numerous studies have found there to be specific advantages in a preschool through 8th grade educational institution, including enhanced social and emotional development and improved student confidence and self-esteem. Students at St. Mark's benefit from a school environment that progresses smoothly from primary school through lower and middle school grades. The continuity between teachers, classmates, programs, and expectations enhances child development and better prepares students to be lifelong learners.

Our Community

We are a community engaged and purposefully small, creating an environment where every child is known and celebrated. Throughout our community, we encourage our students, faculty, and staff to embrace curiosity and a passion for discovery. We invite you to explore the ideals and values that provide the foundation of our culture and philosophy.

Our School

St. Mark’s Episcopal School is a parish day school owned by St. Mark’s Episcopal Church and the Episcopal Diocese of Texas. Founded in 1960, St. Mark's is a beloved part of the West University, Southside, and Bellaire neighborhoods of Houston.

With enrollment just under 500 students, we seek to live into our mission every day. We embrace our Episcopal identity and the tradition of inclusion, belonging, and open inquiry, while also recognizing the religious pluralism of this country and welcoming students of all creeds. With careful purpose, we established ideals and values that guide our students to bright and rewarding futures.
