Afternoon School Enrichment Programs For 2024-2025 School Year (12:30PM TO 3:45PM)

At St. Mark’s, we understand the importance of play and social interaction in a child’s development. Our afternoon enrichment programs, from 12:45pm to 3:45pm, offer a blend of fun and educational activities including art, science, movement, music, stories, and outdoor play, tailored to each age group. Options include 5-day, 3-day, and 2-day programs, with drop-in options available when space permits. Please note that the after-school program is exclusively available to children enrolled in the Day School.

Financial Assistance 

St. Mark’s Episcopal Day School is committed to providing quality education to all children, irrespective of financial constraints. Our School Board oversees a financial assistance program aimed at supporting families in need. Requests for participation in the program should be directed in writing to the Head of School. Financial Assistance is made possible through contributions from our Day School families, and we sincerely appreciate your support in extending opportunities to deserving families.

Waitlist Application

We encourage prospective families to secure a place on our waitlist, which entails a non-refundable fee of $50 per child. However, this fee is waived for active members of St. Mark’s Church, current Day School students and their families, and family members of Day School Staff. Priority enrollment is afforded to active members of St. Mark’s Church, current Day School students and their families, as well as family members of Day School staff.

Please be aware that being on the waitlist does not guarantee admission into our program. Upon contact for enrollment, we kindly request a response within 24 hours. Failure to respond within this timeframe will result in the opening being offered to the next child on the waitlist. You can expect to receive an email early Spring regarding enrollment or to update your application details.

As we strive to maintain accurate records, it is your responsibility to inform us of any updated contact information, such as phone numbers or addresses.

We appreciate your interest in St. Mark's Day School and look forward to potentially welcoming your child into our community.
