Saint Mark's Episcopal Academy

Teachers are first rate - all have different enough techniques to keep the children interested and learning in ways that work for them individually. STRONG principal - Ms. Robertson is the force that guides this school to it's excellence! After School program is both convenient and enjoyed by the attendees

Don't expect for this school, even if you are an alumni, to take a super high functioning Bill Gates quality Asperger's Syndrome child at 4 years old, with special needs documentation from an expert saying if the parents did not write the student has this condition you would never know or suspect it. The child needed a structure like SMEA and has been excluded from their role model classroom though this student cleaned up other children's toys and was the first to listen and complete directions just on visits. I am just keeping this authentic. As for the educators, exceptionally amazing ABSOLUTELY! 27 years ago when I attended only one teacher was problematic and removed that year. We even had exceptional educators 27 years ago that is one part that remains the same. However, the adults, in this situation could have potentially given up on a 4 year old who would never even qualify legally for special needs classroom settings at a public school. I am ashamed to be an alumni with the exception of one educator whom I started with that I will never forget for positive reasons. Best Regards to this school and I hope you learn a very valuable lesson about jumping to conclusions.

I have been very happy with the quality of education and the experiences my children have had at St. Mark's. This year, the average score on the Stanford Achievement Test was in the 94th percentile. They are also going to be using a gifted model of instruction for all students next year. If you are looking for a well rounded, but challenging education, this would be a great school to consider.

Our family loves St. Mark's Academy for so many reasons including the small class sizes and the superior teachers. They excell not only in academics but offer so many extracurricular activities such as Music, Art, Foreign Language, Organic Gardening, Environmental Club and Math and Science Club. (just to name a few) My children feel safe and secure. I have a child with a severe food allergy and I can drop him off knowing that he is safe. Every teacher, staff member and student will know your child by name. What better gift can you give your child?

This is a great, small and independent private school located in Cocoa Village. There is a comprehensive music program, art, PE daily for all grades, sports and wonderful academics including Spanish, French and Latin. SAT scores are above the 90th percentile for the entire tested school population(1st through 6th grades) Due to its size, classes are small and there is a significant sense of community with extensive parental involvement on all levels. The have a Pre-K 3 program starting in 2005. The school will celebrate its 50th year in 2006.
