St. Mark's High School is a coeducational Roman Catholic high school located at 2501 Pike Creek Road, Wilmington, Delaware. The school is administrated by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Wilmington. It is accredited by the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. The current enrollment is approximately 855.

Background

Saint Mark's was founded in 1969 by the then Bishop Michael W. Hyle. Hyle's successor, Bishop Thomas Mardaga, chose the name of Saint Mark because of his "traditional depiction as a young man and an evangelist who was inspired to spread the word of God."[2] The school was intended to serve the cultural and educational needs of Roman Catholic youth in the Diocese of Wilmington. Construction began on the school in 1966, and was completed by 1970. Classes officially began in the fall of 1969.

Campus facilities

Saint Mark's has a 45-acre suburban campus. The school building was fully updated in 1995 as part of St. Mark's Silver Anniversary Campaign. In 2006, the school began constructing new athletic fields on land given by the Catholic Diocese of Wilmington. In 2011, Saint Mark's added lights to the football stadium, allowing the school to host night games. In 2012, in honor of Mr Gene Alessendrini, Saint Mark's dedicated a baseball field in his name.

Academic program

Saint Mark's offers a broad-based, comprehensive curriculum through a diverse academic program that features five levels, or phases, to meet the needs of each student. All phases are college preparatory, and include an Honors Program as well as Delaware's largest College Board Advanced Placement Program leading to college credits.

Athletics and extracurricular activities

St. Mark's has eight fields on campus, a lighted stadium, two gymnasiums, a complete physical training facility, and more than 50 teams at the freshman, junior varsity and varsity levels. The Spartans participate in baseball, basketball, cheerleading, crew, cross country, field hockey, football, golf, indoor track and field, lacrosse, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track and field, volleyball, and wrestling.
