Saint Mark's School Annual Fund Appeal

As students have grown, so, too, has our school, resulting in increased enrollment for each of the past three years. And while we are extremely proud to see our student base on the rise, the financial requirements to support this growth have increased as well – making this year’s Annual Appeal and your continued support as important as ever.

Saint Mark’s allocates 100% of financial gifts to core educational priorities.

• Building the school’s endowment, which opens our school to all students, regardless of their families’ ability to pay
• Maintaining low student-to-teacher ratios in core subject areas, which are a proven way to support high student performance
• Upgrading the school’s technology tools – including laptops, smart-boards and enhanced AV systems – which complement traditional teaching methods

The entire Saint Mark’s community can take pride in our school’s achievements in all of these areas. Given the economic challenges confronting many of our families, however, the need to replenish our endowment is especially great this year. As one parent expressed:

“I really appreciated Saint Mark’s open door when our family arrived in Saint Paul. Money was tight, and the financial assistance we received made our transition much easier. It was only a short-term need, so now we pay full tuition for our own kids, and also contribute extra so other families can receive the same help that we did.”

Please support the Saint Mark’s Annual Appeal. As members of One Family United in Christ, we all play an important role in preparing our children to grow, succeed and serve the wider community beyond Saint Mark’s School.

“Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.” Luke 6:38
