SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 383
WHEREAS, Fourth-grade students of St. Mark's School of
Texas in Dallas are visiting the State Capitol on April 10, 2025,
providing a fitting opportunity to recognize the school's rich
history; and
WHEREAS, The campus traces its roots to 1906, when founder
Menter B. Terrill and his wife, Ada, established The Terrill
School for Boys; in 1946, the campus reopened as Cathedral School
for Boys, and four years later, it merged with Texas Country Day
School to form St. Mark's, a nonsectarian, college-preparatory,
independent day school for boys in grades 1 through 12; and
WHEREAS, St. Mark's strives to provide students with
well-rounded physical, intellectual, moral, and religious
training and instruction; today, the school serves more than 900
students, and it offers challenging programs in the sciences,
arts, and humanities, as well as a variety of opportunities for
involvement and leadership on campus; and
WHEREAS, Over the past 119 years, St. Mark's has provided
countless young Texans a strong academic foundation on which to
build, and the school is indeed deserving of special recognition;
now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 89th
Legislature, hereby honor the fourth-grade students of St. Mark's
School of Texas on the occasion of their visit to the State Capitol
and extend to them sincere best wishes for the future.
