Parish Families: Embrace the Gifts and Blessings of a Strong Catholic Education

Here at St. Boniface, we are blessed to have two excellent Catholic schools located nearby. Catholic education is an opportunity to form our children in the faith while preparing them to go out into the world with confidence. St. Boniface has many families that have already experienced the blessings of a Catholic education and school community.

“Watching my kids get a great education, with teachers and staff that love them and teach them right, with families around us that love and support us — it’s the best part of being a part of the St. Gregory and Bishop Gorman family,” says Monica Pinada.

St. Gregory serves children in kindergarten through fifth grade, while Bishop T.K. Gorman serves students in sixth grade through 12th grade. Both of these schools have a long history of providing quality Catholic education. St. Gregory has been named a National Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education. In addition to a high-quality education, these schools immerse their students in Catholic culture through weekly Mass, daily prayer, spiritual retreats, service opportunities, and so much more. The students are taught by staff who model and teach the faith, while athletics are an opportunity to cultivate virtue.

Many parents have seen significant positive changes in their children when they have chosen Catholic schools for them. Children in this environment grow in confidence, knowledge, and discipline, and they bring these qualities back into their home life.

Amy Schenk, a parishioner whose daughter attends Bishop T.K. Gorman, knows her daughter is being supported on all sides by her school community.

“She is reminded many times throughout the day of God’s love,” Amy says.

Knowing that her daughter is surrounded by caring teachers, spiritual and emotional support, and good, faithful friends has made Amy sure of her choice.

“I believe wholeheartedly that the Catholic school environment helped to create the change that I see in my daughter,” Amy says. “For this, I am eternally thankful.”

St. Boniface would like to see more parish families benefit from this life-changing opportunity. Where finances are an obstacle, the parish offers a partnership in order to make a Catholic education attainable. If you are interested in sending your children to Saint Gregory or Bishop T.K. Gorman, and are in need of financial assistance, please contact Fr. Paul or Pat Adams at 902-515-1382.
