Hello! My name is Jim Markland, and I’m honored to serve as the Assistant Athletic Director at St. Mark School. As an alumni parent and longtime coach in our community, it’s a blessing to step into this role and continue supporting our student-athletes in faith and sports.

Since 2016, I’ve been involved with the basketball program, and in 2020, I also began coaching track, encouraging students to challenge themselves, grow in confidence, and embrace the power of teamwork. My background in sports science, team leadership, and student-athlete development has shaped my belief that athletics is not just about performance—it’s about building character, discipline, and faith.

I strive to create a positive, high-energy environment where every athlete feels valued and inspired to reach their God-given potential. I’m excited to help strengthen our athletic programs and to work with students as they grow in skill, spirit, and love for the game.
