The St. Mark's Cathedral School Class of 2026 officially graduated on May 21 during a ceremony celebrating the accomplishments, growth, and contributions of the school's eighth grade students.

Head of School Mr. Dylan Deal offered remarks honoring the Class of 2026, highlighting the year that each student entered St. Mark's. He then introduced the 2026 student speakers, Cate J. and Park. M., who shared thoughtful and inspiring messages with their classmates.

Following the addresses, St. Mark's recognized the recipients of the school's graduation awards.

The Dean's Award: Gabby T. & Maggie T.
The Dean's Award, chosen by the faculty, is the most prestigious award at St. Mark's Cathedral School. It is awarded to a graduating eighth grade student who has attended sixth through eighth grades at St. Mark's and throughout his or her time at our school has consistently embodied the values of the school through commitment to the highest standards of personal integrity, consistent academic effort, and concern for others.

Head of School Award: Gabby T.
The Head of School Award is given to the graduating eighth grade student who has maintained the highest grade point average throughout his or her Middle School years.

The Olivia Bradley Award for Personal Growth and Commitment: Wyatt W.
Awarded annually by the Middle School faculty, this award honors Olivia Bradley, longtime French teacher and Middle School Director of St. Mark's. This award recognizes a student who has demonstrated significant personal growth throughout his or her Middle School years either academically, socially, or spiritually and who has demonstrated a significant commitment to St. Mark's, perhaps in ways which are not always noticed. 

The ceremony concluded with the presentation of diplomas by Mr. Deal, Dean Alston Johnson, and Mr. Trey Woodham as family, friends, faculty, and staff celebrated the achievements of the Class of 2026.
