Enrollment Policy
St. Mark's Evangelical Lutheran Church owns and operates St. Mark's Evangelical Lutheran School to serve our member families. Families who are not members of St. Mark's may apply for enrollment of their children after they have met with the School Administrator and the Educational Pastor.
St. Mark’s Evangelical Lutheran School admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, sex, handicap, and ethnic origin in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.
Refer to our Parent Handbook for more information about our Enrollment Policy and other policies at St. Mark's.
Educational Philosophy
At St. Mark's, we desire to assist in the Christian training of all children, however, occasionally we are unable to meet all cases of special academic, emotional, or behavioral need. For this reason, all students are assessed prior to enrollment to determine special needs and our ability to address these needs.
Families seeking enrollment are to review our Parent Handbook, and meet with our School Administrator. In addition, children will be assessed by the appropriate classroom teacher(s) prior to an enrollment decision being made.
We've designed our enrollment process to be transparent to both the families of our prospective students as well as the school, so that we might work together to create the best education solution for you and your children.
Tuition & Fees
The fees that parents pay for their children to attend St. Mark’s cover only part of the cost to operate the school. The Board of School Ministry and the congregation as a whole strive to keep the fees as low as possible for the families. The actual cost per child for the operation of St. Mark’s Ev. Lutheran School from pre-school age through 8 th grade is approximately $6,000. It is the hope and prayer that all the members of St. Mark’s share their earthly blessings with their Lord through their weekly offerings so that the various programs of ministry at St. Mark’s can be properly funded including the operation of the school.
The policy of the congregation is to encourage all of its families to send their children to St. Mark’s Ev. Lutheran School. If there is a lack of financial means for a family the congregation stands ready to help so that no child will be kept from attending St. Mark’s Ev. Lutheran School. The congregation will provide the necessary assistance and adjustments to the school fees based on family income and extenuating circumstances which hamper the family from fulfilling their obligation for their school fees. All fees are included in the tuition listed.
