* And we ended our week with our 8th Grade vs. Facutly Volleyball Game.
Come be a MARKSMEN!!! There's always room for one more!!!!
Father Lampitt came to share with our fifth grade class about his call to priesthood. We will continue learning about vocations this week in honor of Catholic Schools Week!
SMS students started the day off right with a delicious breakfast with their buddies! Each buddy class pair wore matching colors and then spent time eating, chatting, and talking about all the reasons they love SMS! We are proud of the community we are building every day at SMS!
The students were absolutely delighted to get a special lunch treat - ice cream! Our Marksmen work so hard each day to learn and grow and we are thrilled to celebrate them today, during Catholic Schools Week 2025!
Congratulations to the 2nd graders who received the Sacrament of Reconciliation for the
first time on January 25! May you celebrate this great gift of God’s mercy often! We look

Eucharist!

While it certainly has been cold these past few weeks, nothing warms our hearts more than Catholic Schools Week! We are ready to profess our Faith and our Love for Catholic Schools! We are also so grateful for a St. Mark's Parish that supports us in prayer, love, talents, and treasures!!!
MARKSMEN ARE THE BEST!!!!!!
Members of Boy Scout Troop #225, Peter Taylor and Owen Johnson, have taken upon themselves to make sure our United States of America Flag is flown every day school is in session. Each day they raise it to the top of the flagpole, and then graciously lower it to half staff in honor of President Carter's death. Our flag will remain at half staff for a period of 30 days. At the end of each day, they take the flag down and fold it properly. Thank you Peter and Owen for your efforts!
May God Bless America and May God Bless St. Mark's!!!!!
Congratulations to our 6th Grade Boys Basketball Team as they took the Consolation Championship in the Catholic Schools Tournament this past weekend! Job well-done!
