Students entering Kindergarten are required to be five years old on or before December 31st in the year enrolling for school. Prospective Kindergarten children will engage in Kindergarten Screening in the Spring. Actual acceptance occurs if the child meets the requirements of the screening test. If you are interested in enrolling and have already missed Spring screenings, please contact St. Mark School to set up a screening appointment.

• Complete the Registration Form, Textbook Loan Form, Release of Records Form (from previous school or daycare), Parishioner Verification Form and Directory Form

Step Three:

Families must complete the HEALTH PACKET by August 1st. 

• Release of Information Form
• Student Health History Form completed and signed by parent
• Physical Examination (Health Certiate/Appraisal Form) - Because of insurance requirements, if your child cannot have a physical before August 1st, a copy of the appointment card from the doctor will suffice 
• Dental Health Certificate

• Grade 6 must have verification of the Tdap vaccination - No child will be allowed to enter school without this form

Transfer Students:

Any other student/students registering (grades 1-8) will have a formal interview with the Principal or Assistant Principal and complete a shadow day within their current grade level. Before official acceptance, additional testing may be given to students and transcripts are required from all previous schools.
