A throng of local dignitaries joined parents and students at the launch of the new Science Center on the campus of Saint Mark’s Episcopal School in Fort Lauderdale.
Commissioners were in attendance from Broward County, The City of Fort Lauderdale, and The City of Oakland Park, and both the county and the city of Fort Lauderdale gave plaques commemorating May 20, 2025 as Saint Mark’s Episcopal School Science Center Day.
Bishop Peter Eaton consecrated the altar in the new Outdoor Chapel adjacent to the Science Center. Spencer Taintor, head of school, Father Grant Wiseman, Saint Mark’s Rector, and Sarah Weitz, chair of the board of trustees, all gave brief presentations.
And finally all the celebrities got together with scissors and cut the ribbon to officially open the new building.
Saint Mark’s Episcopal School has won national recognition for their STEM program and this new building will provide wonderful opportunities for students.
