St. Mark's School of Texas

The Kid-netic Games are back.

After a six-year hiatus due to damage from the 2019 tornado, St. Mark’s was proud to host this beloved weekend athletic event once again for student-athletes ages 2–22 living with visual and/or physical impairments. From the Upper School choir’s opening notes to the final cheer, the day was filled with courage, connection, and the kind of joy that reminds us what community is all about.🏅

The varsity lacrosse team brought home their first SPC Championship since 2013 with a thrilling 10-3 win over Kinkaid in the final game!

The Sixth-Grade Campout introduces boys to important wilderness skills they will one day need for the Pecos Wilderness Trip. While spending a night under the East Texas stars, the Class of 2032 practiced cooking, shelter construction and fishing.

Straight from the heart.🫀

Ninth graders recently explored the anatomy of the heart through a hands-on sheep heart dissection, guided by Dr. Jesse Hochman, parent of senior Nathaniel Hochman. Since volunteering during his son’s first year, Dr. Hochman has returned each year to share his expertise, elevating the experience for every class. We are grateful for his continued generosity and commitment to our students’ learning.⭐💙

The Middle School Math Team are state champions! Congratulations to Roger Wang ’30, Cyrus Kuang ’32, Max Cao ’31, and Dhilan Saluja ’30, for capturing the state title at the highly competitive 5A State competition in San Antonio.

Overall, Marksmen secured Top-5 finished in all three team events (Math, Science, and Number Sense). Individually, students achieved 22 total placements, including 3 individual champions and 8 Top-10 finishes.

Fluent in Spanish AND hacky sack? Señor Correa took time to show students that language skills aren't the only thing he can keep in the air.

St. Mark’s welcomed more than 3,000 students and teachers from 39 schools for the 2026 ISAS Fine Arts Festival.

On every corner of campus, through performances, screenings, concerts, and exhibitions, student artists showcased their talent and creativity.

The Festival was a community effort, with hundreds of St. Mark's faculty, staff, parents, and students working to make this an unforgettable weekend.

Not your typical after-school conversation.

The IDLC’s Global Engagement Committee recently hosted a campus-wide discussion on AI, bringing together Upper School students, faculty, and staff for the first time. The conversation explored AI’s impact across professional and academic settings, from inclusivity in the job market to classroom learning, diversity of thought, and the risk of increasing homogeneity, creating space for thoughtful dialogue and the exchange of ideas on one of today’s most important topics.

These Marksmen have CONFIDENCE!

At this month’s Character & Leadership Assembly, Lower Schoolers learned two strategies to boost their confidence: self-affirmations and power poses.
