Over the weekend, two St. Mark's Lions celebrated their elevation to Eagle Scout. Matthew Jordan '25 and Arjun Poi '25 received Scout BSA's highest recognition during the Eagle Scout Court of Honor ceremony at the St. Mark's Chapel on Sept. 29, 2024.
Dylan Taylor ’25 has played soccer all his life, and like many other Marksmen, he has never had to worry about being provided with the proper equipment to play. But through his many experiences in different leagues with different teams, Taylor realized that many players were lacking the proper equipment such as cleats and shin guards. Seeking to help players like these, Taylor created PELOTA.
Since 2002, the Senior Class has made a legacy gift, designating the remainder of their class activity budget to help future Marksmen. For their gift, the Class of 2024 looked back on the seminal moments of their senior year.
Four Marksmen from the Class of 2024 have been appointed to our nation’s service academies. Zack Goforth and Ethan Gao will attend the Naval Academy, Quina Perkison will attend the West Point Prep Academy and Mitchell Galardi will attend West Point.
After a rigorous nomination process in which generations of Marksmen were considered, the Lee S. Smith ’65 Courage & Honor Award committee is pleased to announce that Matt Osborne ’90 has been named its second recipient.
