Where We Go and What We Do….
· Corporal & Spiritual Works of Mercy (Community Service Projects)
Our works of mercy are an important response to God’s gift of faith and life.

Therefore they comprise a very important part of the learning process at St. Boniface.

· The Pursuit of Beauty
Art and Music are critical components of a quality Catholic education. The performing arts are a big part of St. Boniface. December brings the annual Christmas Play that is not to be missed. Each year it is more enjoyable. All of the students from kindergarten to grade eight are a part of the Christmas play. In the spring all the students prepare for the Spring Music Program and Recital. To round out the year each class readies themselves for the Lip Sync Contest. The Lip Sync is great family fun. Everyone laughs the night away. Our children are guided in their appreciation of the visual arts by quality instruction which inspires each child to rejoice in the abilities God has given them.

· Field Trips
Field trips in the spring and in the fall help us to give our learning a more practical face. We have traveled to many wonderful places. In the past some of the field trips we enjoyed included: Pumpkin Patch Visit and Great Harvest Bread Company, Paul Bunyan Camp and the Planetarium at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, La Crosse Children’s Museum and Petco, sight-seeing along the Mississippi River, and the Minnesota Science Museum.

· Catholic Schools Week
The last week in January is a time to celebrate the gift of Catholic Education at St. Boniface! Catholic schools week is non-stop fun and a time to share with the community the treasure in their midst which is St. Boniface School. We start the week with Sunday Mass celebrating Catholic schools and a pancake breakfast. The week continues with special dress up days, an international day, a read in, shakes at the store and movie day. In addition, we participate in the Catholic Schools Diocesan Spelling Bee and Bible Bowl.
