St. Boniface provides countless opportunities for your child`s spiritual, educational, and social development.  We are proud of our long-standing tradition of faith-based education, quality instruction, social opportunities, and character enrichment for all students.

Admission Policy

The school serves parish families as classroom size permits. Schools of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Springfield in Illinois, do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, or national and ethnic origin in administration of their educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic and other school-administered programs.
