Chapelle Students Recognized in the Keep Christ in Christmas Poem Contest The Chapelle community is excited to celebrate two gifted writers whose heartfelt words stood out in this year’s Keep Christ in Christmas Poem Contest! Sophie Taylor earned 1st place in the 6th–8th grade division, capturing the true meaning of the season with a beautifully written poem that reflected faith, joy, and the spirit of Christmas. In the 9th–12th grade division, Angelica Bendeck received 1st place, impressing judges with her thoughtful and inspiring piece that highlighted the central message of Christ’s love during the Christmas season. Both students were honored for their creativity, expression of faith, and dedication to keeping Christ at the heart of Christmas. Congratulations, Sophie and Angelica! Your words remind us of the beauty, hope, and sacred meaning of this holy season. Sophie Taylor' Poem (8th Grade): In the glow of the season, When the lights softly gleam, let us not lose sight of the heart of the dream. Beyond gifts and glitter, Beyond songs that play, lies the love of a savior born on that day. Keep Christ in Christmas, let His light shine through, in kindness, mercy, in all that we do. For the true gift of Christmas was not wrapped in gold, but in swaddling cloth, in a story long told. Angelica Bendeck (10th Grade): When Christmas lights begin to glow, And joyful carols softly flow, Let everyone remember still, The holy gift of God's will. For in a manger, low and bare, The Savior came to meet us there, Not wrapped in gold, nor crowned in fame, But clothed in love, with a humble name. To Keep Christ in Christmas days, Let kindness guide your words and ways, Serve with joy, forgive others and pray, And walk with him each passing day. So, keep his light, so purse, so bright, On this lovely Christmas night.

Chapelle Celebrates the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception On December 8th, the Chapelle community gathered in faith and joy to celebrate the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception, a beautiful holy day honoring Mary’s preservation from original sin and her “yes” to God’s plan. The celebration reminded us of the purity, grace, and courage of Our Blessed Mother—virtues we strive to emulate in our daily lives. During Mass, we reflected on the words of Scripture that capture the heart of this feast: “Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with you.” — Luke 1:28 This verse reminds us of Mary’s unique role in salvation history and her openness to God’s will, inspiring each of us to follow her example of trust and discipleship. This year’s celebration was made even more special as our 8th graders enjoyed their first Grandparents Day as Chipmunks. Seeing grandparents join their granddaughters for Mass, photos, and campus activities brought a spirit of love and family that filled the entire school. The joy on the faces of our newest Chipmunks—and their grandparents—was truly heartwarming.  We are grateful for the opportunity to honor Mary together as a community and to welcome our wonderful grandparents to campus. May the grace of this feast continue to inspire our hearts throughout the Advent season.

Personal Finance Class Welcomes Guest Speakers to Conclude Its First Year This school year marked an exciting milestone at Archbishop Chapelle High School as we introduced Personal Finance as a new elective for juniors and seniors. This foundational course will officially become a required class for all juniors beginning in the 2026–2027 school year, reflecting our commitment to equipping students with real‑world financial skills that will serve them long after graduation. Throughout the semester, students explored essential financial topics including: • Writing checks and balancing a checkbook • Reconciling accounts and navigating digital banking • Sales tax, discounts, and consumer skills • Budgeting and filing taxes • Basics of credit, debt, and financial decision‑making • Evaluating education return on investment • Financial aid and college planning • Jobs, careers, and employment essentials • Insurance fundamentals • Investing basics The course is taught by Mrs. Stacy C. Woodward ’96, who partnered with Chapelle alumna Andrea Aleman Toro '09 and Edward Jones to strengthen and modernize the curriculum. Students engaged with interactive lessons through the EVERFI online platform, allowing them to apply financial concepts in practical, relevant ways. To conclude the course, Andrea and her husband, Daniel, visited as guest speakers, sharing their professional and academic journeys while introducing students to the “Rules of the Road” and current industry trends in personal finance. They also explained the role of a financial advisor and demonstrated real‑world tools—including using AI—to explore stock analysis and the time value of money. The session wrapped up with a Q&A and a special Chick‑fil‑A lunch generously provided by the speakers. We are thrilled to offer this important course and to prepare our students with knowledge they can begin applying in their daily lives today. At Chapelle, we remain committed to empowering our young women with the skills, confidence, and understanding they need to build a successful financial future.

2025 Rivertown Performances Bring Christmas Cheer to Kenner’s Magical Christmas Village ✨🎄 Earlier this month, the holiday spirit was alive and shining in Kenner’s Magical Christmas Village as our beloved Chapelle performance teams took the stage! The Chapelle Hi‑Steppers, Cheerleaders, and Chapellettes brought their signature talent, energy, and Chipmunk Spunk to one of the community’s favorite Christmas traditions. Families from across the area gathered in Rivertown to enjoy an evening filled with lights, music, and festive performances. Our teams delivered crowd‑pleasing routines that captured the joy of the season and showcased the hard work and dedication they put into their craft year‑round. From high‑kicking precision to spirited cheers to elegant dance performances, each team lit up the night and helped spread Christmas joy to everyone in attendance. This annual event is always a highlight—not just for the community, but for our performers, who love sharing their gifts and representing Chapelle with pride. Thank you to the families, friends, and supporters who came out to cheer on our girls. And a huge round of applause for our Hi‑Steppers, Cheerleaders, and Chapellettes for another unforgettable night in Rivertown!  Merry Christmas from our performance teams to you! 💚

Chapelle Community Shares the Spirit of the Season Through This Year’s Giving Tree, Sponsored by NHS and NJHS 🎄💚 Each Advent season, the Chapelle community comes together in faith, generosity, and love to support families in need—and this year was no exception. Our 2025 Giving Tree, sponsored by our National Honor Society and National Junior Honor Society was a beautiful reminder of what it means to live out the true spirit of Christmas. This year, Chapelle students, faculty, staff, and families selected ornaments from our Giving Tree, each representing a specific gift requested by a local family. Thanks to the overwhelming generosity of our community, we were able to provide Christmas gifts and support for 7 families in need. From toys and clothing to household items and special wish‑list surprises, every gift was chosen with care and wrapped with love. The joy and hope these gifts bring to families during the holidays is immeasurable—and it is all because of the kindness of our Chipmunk family. A heartfelt thank you to every student, parent, teacher, club, and staff member who participated. Your compassion makes a real difference and reflects the heart of Chapelle: faith in action. May the love shared through our Giving Tree continue to inspire us throughout the Christmas season and into the new year.

Announcing the 2026 Chapelle Award Recipients 💚 Archbishop Chapelle High School is proud to announce the 2026 Chapelle Award Recipients, honoring individuals whose lives reflect exceptional faith, service, dedication, and love for our Chapelle community. This year, we celebrate three remarkable members of the Chapelle family whose impact spans generations. 2026 Deus Providebit Award Recipients Deacon Drea & Brenda Capaci For more than 50 years, Brenda and Deacon Drea Capaci have faithfully shared their time, talents, and unwavering devotion with Archbishop Chapelle High School. Brenda joined Chapelle’s faculty in 1973, serving generations of students with passion and care. Deacon Drea has served as Chapelle’s Co‑Chaplain for the past 25 years, ministering to our community and guiding students spiritually through prayer, service, and retreat leadership. Their decades of commitment, their joy in serving, and their deep love for Chapelle embody our motto Deus Providebit—God Will Provide. We are honored to recognize them for their extraordinary legacy of faith and service. 2026 Alumna of the Year Lyndsey Manalla Dyle ’03 A proud legacy alumna, Lyndsey Manalla Dyle ’03 carries Chapelle in her heart everywhere she goes. After graduating, she returned home to her Alma Mater—serving in Admissions, Alumnae, Advancement, and as a coach, deepening her love for the Chapelle community and strengthening the sisterhood that shaped her. Lyndsey reflects beautifully on the impact Chapelle has had on her life: “Deus Providebit—God Will Provide... I’ve carried this motto with me since my days at Chapelle. I truly believe that what you put into Chapelle, she will give you right back and then some. Chapelle isn’t just a place I went; it’s part of my identity. My mother and the women who taught me at Chapelle shaped who I am today, and I am forever grateful.” Lyndsey continues to embody our values through her leadership, service, and loyalty to Chapelle. We invite our entire community to celebrate these outstanding honorees at the 2026 Emerald Gala on February 28, 2026.

  • Event Sign Up for Visitors on Campus

    In light of recent events around our country, we will be increasing security around our campus. While these measures may be of some inconvenience, I want to reiterate that our number one priority is the safety of the young ladies on this campus.


    Events will no longer just be open. EVERY EVENT (pep rallies, masses etc.) will require you to digitally sign up via a link that will be found in Chipmunk Tracks. If you are not signed up, then you will have to check in at the front office.


    Each event may look different focusing on the safety of our students, visitors, and employees. Please be patient as we work out this new system.

  • Bullying/Harassment Policy

    Bullying is a distinctive pattern of repeatedly and deliberately harming and humiliating others and is characterized by a power imbalance between the two parties. Bullying includes, but is not limited to physical or verbal aggression, relational aggression, or emotional aggression (teasing, threatening, and intimidating others). Relational aggression (RA), is a form of indirect bullying that uses social relationships to manipulate or harm others, such as isolating a student from her group of friends (social exclusion), threatening to stop talking to a friend (the ''silent treatment''), or spreading gossip and rumors. Harassment includes, but is not limited to, slurs, jokes, comments, or other offensive conduct relating to race, religion, color, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, citizenship, disability, or any other legally protected characteristic. Bullying, relational aggression (including cyber-bullying), and harassment will not be tolerated. Please use the forms below to report bullying.
