"St. Mark's has such a welcoming environment. The children and their families as well as the wonderful staff create a community, a community that works together to achieve a happy, nurturing, academically stimulating environment where a student can grow and gain confidence while discovering their talents and strengths. I am so proud to be part of this community!"

- Gabriela Olivero, Pre-K Teacher

 

"We have been lucky enough to call St. Mark’s our home away from home since 2019. We have witnessed our children gain independence and confidence and grow cognitively by leaps and bounds. While these were within our expectations when searching for a school, we didn’t anticipate how much of a positive effect the St. Mark’s school-community relationship would have on our family. The teachers and staff have created an environment where our kids feel loved, safe, and eager to learn with their friends. They have looked forward to each school day with genuine excitement as to what that day will bring them, while we remain wishing time would just slow down."

"We have loved the teaching philosophies in the primary school and beyond. The teachers at St. Mark’s are more than engaging; they encourage curiosity. The teachers embrace each child's independence and encourage it in a positive manner. From the minute a child walks onto campus, they are treated like school is their second home. Respect abounds throughout the campus as the children are lovingly guided to listen to their teachers and their peers. Furthermore, the children are given great confidence that continues to develop year after year." 

- The Herr Family

"Our daughter began school at St. Mark’s in fall of 2020 as a two-year-old. She went from being a quiet observer in the classroom to now being a vocal and active participant. Her confidence and communication skills have grown tremendously in the past two years. We believe that her amazing teachers played a vital role in her development. In addition to providing her with a strong academic foundation, St. Mark’s has done a wonderful job of teaching her techniques to communicate her feelings and help manage her emotions. Our daughter wakes up every morning excited to go to school and see her teachers and friends."

- The Singh Family

"Primary school at St. Mark’s has met each of our children where they are intellectually, emotionally, and socially every day and every year. They have grown from being frightened at drop off to marching confidently into school. Shepherded by a community of teachers, administrators, and friends, primary school has cultivated our older children into avid learners, empathetic friends, and leaders in their classrooms. Our youngest child is an enthusiastic supporter of the sandbox."
