Reminder: the only reason your English teacher said "don't split an infinitive" is a rule is because William Strunk and Elwyn White said it was, and the only reason THEY said it was is because they wanted to make English more like Latin and you *can't* split a (present active) Latin infinitive.
Let English be English. If you want to boldly go, do so.
