St. Mark Catholic School was established in 1982 welcoming 113 children in grades Kindergarten through third. The school's use of the educational building consisted of five classrooms, a small library, and the two-room main office. The church activity building provided space for physical education classes and a student lunchroom. The staff in 1982 consisted of the principal, Secretary, and six teachers. Presently, seventy-five staff members and 550 students in grade PK3-8th occupy the school campus consisting of three buildings totaling 84,000 square feet on a 14.7 acre site
The mission of the school is to educate each student in the spirit of faith, gospel values, and academic excellence according to Roman Catholic principles. To fulfill the mission St. Mark has a rigorous curriculum with challenging and expansive programs of learning. Many programs and approaches are incorporated into daily teaching including differentiated instruction, a method to tailor instruction to the individual needs of each student. St. Mark is a two time recipient of the U.S. Department of Education Blue Ribbon award, first in 1992 and again in 2007. St. Mark qualified to apply for a third Blue Ribbon award in 2015 and a fourth in 2022.
