Welcome to St. Mark’s Episcopal Day School, where educational excellence meets decades of experience.

Our passionate team of educators boasts a remarkable combined teaching tenure of 266 years, with an impressive 180 years dedicated to shaping young minds right here at St. Mark’s. As a cornerstone of the Greater Little Rock community since 1966, we've had the honor of serving generations of families, and we eagerly anticipate continuing our commitment to nurturing the growth and development of our community's children for many more years to come. Our preschool program, designed for ages two through five, prioritizes social, physical, academic, emotional, and artistic development.

At St. Mark’s, our mission is to guide each child toward their maximum potential through a diverse range of teaching approaches, all delivered within a warm and nurturing environment. As a ministry of Saint Mark’s Episcopal Church, our unwavering dedication extends beyond education to serve and enrich the lives of the Greater Little Rock community.

Our school is a ministry of Saint Mark’s Episcopal Church where Love Comes First and everyone, regardless of who they love, where they’re from, or what their history may be, is welcome here. You’re invited to share the love at God’s table with us.
