Recapping a Great Summer

Nothing But Net: Molly Avrard '28 Wins 3-Point Competition

August 8, 2025

This summer, Molly hit the court in a big way—literally! While playing travel basketball, she participated in a 3-point shooting competition during one of her tournaments. The contest brought together about 15 talented high school players from across Louisiana and Mississippi, each ready to show off their shooting skills. When the final buzzer sounded, Molly had made the most 3-pointers out of the entire group, securing her spot as the champion! Her sharp shooting earned her not just bragging rights, but also a championship ring and a $400 prize. We are so proud of Molly for this exciting achievement! We cannot wait to see her in the Burrow this year representing Archbishop Chapelle High School on the basketball court!

Golden Guidance: Mrs. Reeg Honored by Notre Dame

August 7, 2025

Congratulations to our College Counselor, Mrs. Jessica Reeg '00, on receiving the Notre Dame Golden Guide Award ! This prestigious honor, awarded by the University of Notre Dame, recognizes outstanding educators who go above and beyond in guiding students through the college search and application process. What makes this award especially meaningful is that recipients are nominated by their own students. Recent graduate Savannah Corrales '25 nominated Mrs. Reeg for the award, sharing: "If it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t have applied to any out-of-state schools, but her encouragement and support throughout this process helped me get into top schools like Notre Dame, where I’m proud to continue my education." Mrs. Reeg is a tireless advocate for our soon to be alumnae, working one-on-one with seniors through every step of the college admissions journey, from essay writing and transcript tracking to scholarship searches and application prep. This year also marks Mrs. Reeg’s 20th year of dedicated service at Chapelle. We are so proud and grateful to have her as part of our school community. Congratulations, Mrs. Reeg!
