Dear Spartan Community,
A little over three years ago, we humbly and faithfully assured you that we were embarking on a sacred mission to secure a solid future for Saint Mark’s and for future generations of young Spartans. We did so with a new and bold vision: to serve as the premier center for education and ministry within the Catholic Diocese of Wilmington. Over the last three years you have witnessed a resurgence of our beloved school that has shattered local, regional, and national trends by every metric. We’ve done this together, relying on the tireless efforts of our community and confident that our work has been guided by the Holy Spirit. We are excited to announce this undertaking that will further secure our future. Whether you are new to the Spartan family or one of its original pioneers, I urge you to join us for this historic event.
Together, we will continue to be successful so long as we remain committed to our vision and faithful to our mission, for we know with certainty that, “Through God, All Things are Possible!”
With a grateful heart,
Kristen D. Sullivan
