concerns on the personal growth of
each studentbody, mind and spirit. To this end the school strives
for a balanced
emphasis upon the academic, athletic and aestheticthe sensory, social

spiritualin an environment conducive to the highest achievement
possible taking into consideration each individual's abilities. It is
our responsibility to work in cooperation with the families as we teach
their children to meet resonsibilities, be considerate of others,
face up to challenges, discipline themselves and develop lifelong habits
of industry that will prepare them for further education and productive
lives.
As an academic institution, the school is committed
to providing learning experiences that are lively, rigorous and beyond
the norm. The curriculum is comprehensive and is routinely challenged
to ensure its continued ability to provide enrichment beyond the essentials.
Beginning with Scarecrow Day in Pre-School, growing to "pignics,"
metamorphic pancakes, and economic fairs in the lower grades and culminating
with a year-long study of the water quality of Cross Lake for a Science
Olympiad project in Middle School, the academic
atmosphere is stimulating. Ultimately, it is our goal to serve as a meaningful
prelude for the future, a future full of unknowns and yet embraced with
faith and confidence by those who have passed through St. Mark's Cathedral
School.
St. Mark's Cathedral School is a member of and is accredited
by SAES (Southwestern Associaton of Episcopal Schools) and is approved
by the State of Louisiana.
