St Mark’s School of Texas

I’m a bit biased because I went here and my son goes here, but it is an awesome school. First through twelfth grades. Super teachers and beautiful campus. Diverse student body. What more do you need?

Pretty much the best education you could ever buy for your 1−12^th grade boys in Dallas. And for that I am supremely grateful to my parents. SUPREMELY.
Seriously, this place prepares you in ways you don’t recognize until years later, and then you’re all the more appreciative when you’re old enough and mature enough to appreciate such things. And as Scott said, I’ve made some great lifetime friends at the school, no doubt the contacts come in handy for a variety of things…
One thing that this place didn’t prepare me for was proper interaction with females. I was so socially awkward around girls until I learned in college how booze helps. Oh wait, I’m still socially awkward around girls. Thank you, all boys school!

If you don’t know and need to, this is the upper crust boys private school in Dallas, the sister school is Hockaday. If you could afford to send your kids here, their life would probably be greatly enchanced just through social networking alone.

My good old preppy K-​12 school in Dallas. An all-​boys school, uniforms, tons of land, incredible cafeteria, on-​campus chapel, indoor olympic pool, planetarium/​super-​telescope, etc. If it can be bought with money, this school has it. My favorite feature was the super cafeteria… food was better than a lot of college cafeterias and my favorite was their baked potato bar. I ate baked potatoes almost every other day for four years there.
The campus is nice and had really thoughtful teachers for the most part. My class was about 70 kids, predominantly white, few minorities. It’s upper-​scale Dallas, what do you expect?
I went here for Middle School (’94-’98) and enjoyed my time there. It would have been interesting to go there for high school, but went a completely opposite route: public high school in the Bay Area.
