St. Bonaventure School

Dear Parents, Thank you for entrusting us with the education of your child. Saint Bonaventure Parish School is a Christ-centered school. Christ is the reason for this school. He is the unseen but ever-present teacher in its classes. He is the model of its faculty and the inspiration of its students. The administration, faculty and staff strive to transmit religious values based on the gospel message of Jesus. Our desire is to foster a love for honesty, integrity, justice and respect for life in all students. Saint Bonaventure is a fully accredited Catholic school committed to providing an academic program of excellence. Our parent-school partnership promotes a quality educational program, builds a safe environment, fosters a strong faith community, and deepens respect and concern for the unique value of each person. Together we can cultivate the knowledge, skills, and attitudes students will need to adapt to the challenges of the 21st Century. We hold high expectations for success and achievement for all students. Therefore, we have established guidelines and policies to help make our goals a reality. You will find them outlined in this Handbook for Parents and Students. Please read them and discuss them with your child(ren). All who work at Saint Bonaventure School have read and agree to follow the guidelines outlined in this handbook. As the Handbook represents the understanding of both parent and school, attendance at school is therefore to be viewed as assent to the terms and conditions stated in this document. We pray that God shower His blessings on you and your children and ask Him to remain the center of all our lives.
