Athletics

As a Lutheran elementary school, St. Mark strives to apply and teach Christian attitudes in all school activities, including sporting events. Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 10:31, “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” Co-curricular sports give student athletes the opportunity to use their God-given physical ability to reflect the love of their Savior. Through athletics we strive to increase a student’s self esteem, work ethic, competitive drive, leadership behaviors, and understanding of teamwork. In addition, we strive to provide an enjoyable, vigorous, and safe experience in a Christian environment. We believe athletics is part of the total education process at St. Mark School.
