Religious Education Options 2024/2025We are excited about the new Religious Education school year at St. Bonaventure Parish! We have kept what works in a program that has been updated and yet, manages to be what we have always known and promoted; a community that teaches and lives the Word of Christ. We are offering two school year programs and a Summer program that will look rather familiar; classes in the parish center, as well as a homeschool option. Due to demand, we have also increased our classes for Pre K students that, due to the generosity of our parishioners, continues to be free. Any of these models will meet your needs regardless of where your family is at with today’s demands. There are no wrong or right decisions, just those that work for your family and we are here to support your decision. All options are explained below.
