The school at a glance

St. Mark’s is a nonsectarian boys’ day school in Dallas serving first through twelfth grade. Its published tuition is high, so its relevance to a middle-income shortlist rests on need-based assistance rather than a low advertised price. The school reports substantial average grants for families earning under $140,000 and additional support for some expenses beyond tuition. Those figures describe groups of recipients and cannot predict what a new applicant will receive. Admission and financial-aid review are separate, and the school says applying for aid does not affect admission. Families should request a grade-specific total and individualized award before committing. The published aid deadlines currently concern 2027–28, whereas the tuition schedule is for 2026–27. This option broadens the shortlist for families comfortable with a boys-only setting and able to pursue a selective admissions process.

Why it’s on this list

High-sticker, aid-dependent candidate with unusually explicit middle-income aid information. Boys only, grades 1–12; admission and award required.
