Class of 2021 Celebrates 5 Years at Rock ‘n’ Bowl On Saturday, July 18, the Class of 2021 came together to celebrate their 5-Year Reunion at Rock ‘n’ Bowl, and it was a night to remember! From the moment they walked in, it was clear that the bond of sisterhood is still going strong. The evening was filled with laughter, hugs, and plenty of memories from their time at Chapelle. It didn’t take long for the dance floor to fill as classmates reconnected and celebrated five years since graduation. Each alumna received a special 5-Year Reunion exclusive trucker hat, a fun keepsake to mark this milestone and commemorate their first official reunion together. The hats were proudly worn throughout the night as the class danced and enjoyed being back together.  Five years may have passed, but once a Chipmunk, always a Chipmunk. We loved seeing the Class of 2021 back together and can’t wait to watch them continue to shine in the years ahead.

Chapelle Basketball Hosts Annual Summer Camp This summer, our Chapelle Basketball Program had the joy of welcoming over 40 young athletes to campus for our annual Basketball Summer Camp — and what a fantastic few days it was! For three action-packed days, campers worked on drills, developed new skills, and built confidence on the court. From ball handling and shooting fundamentals to teamwork and sportsmanship, each session was filled with energy, encouragement, and plenty of smiles. One of the highlights of camp was seeing our Chapelle players step into leadership roles. They loved sharing their passion for the game, mentoring the next generation, and creating an atmosphere that was both competitive and fun. Watching our current athletes inspire these young players was a beautiful reminder of what Chapelle athletics is all about — faith, teamwork, and heart. We are so grateful to everyone who participated and helped make this year’s camp such a success. The future of basketball is bright, and we are already counting down the days until next summer!

ChipStart 2026: Welcoming the Class of 2031 💚 ChipStart is more than just an introduction to high school. It is the first step in a journey of sisterhood, faith, leadership, and confidence at Archbishop Chapelle High School. Over the course of two unforgettable weeks in June, the Class of 2031 officially began their Chapelle story. From the moment they checked in on the first morning, they were welcomed by Student Council, class officers, Ambassadors, faculty, and administrators who were eager to help them feel at home. Throughout ChipStart, our newest Chipmunks experienced a little bit of everything that makes Chapelle special. They learned school traditions, practiced cheers, brainstormed rally themes, and competed in friendly games that gave them a taste of the excitement of Rally season. They explored campus, met administrators, walked their schedules, and became familiar with the spaces where they will learn and grow over the next four years. Faith remained at the heart of it all. The class participated in a retreat experience and celebrated their very first Class Mass together, which is a meaningful milestone that grounded their high school journey in prayer and community. They learned Chapelle songs, reflected on what it means to be a young woman of faith, and closed each day in gratitude. Of course, ChipStart would not be complete without plenty of fun. From pep rallies and scavenger hunts to workouts, bonding games, off‑campus adventures, and a spirited class rally, laughter filled the halls. The Chippy Bucks auction and final celebration luncheon were the perfect way to end their time together, recognizing the friendships formed and memories made. Most importantly, ChipStart created connection. What began as a group of incoming 8th graders quickly became a class united in spirit and ready to take on high school together. The Class of 2031 has officially begun their Chapelle legacy, and we cannot wait to see how they grow, lead, and shine in the years ahead. Welcome home, Chipmunks.

VolleyChips Bring Home Big Wins and Big Memories The VolleyChips had an incredible week filled with volleyball, team building, and most importantly, FUN!  The team traveled to Alabama to compete in the McGill-Toolen Tournament and absolutely dominated the competition, returning home with an impressive 7–1 record. Facing talented teams from Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida, the intensity was high and the competition fierce. Our girls rose to the challenge and represented Chapelle with skill, heart, and determination. Fans who want to relive the action can catch the games on our Hudl Fan Page, where matches were streamed live for supporters to cheer them on from near and far. But the week was about more than volleyball. While away, the team focused on strengthening their bond off the court as well. The kitchen turned into a competition arena for Chippy’s Grocery Games, where players were challenged to create a taco night side dish with only $10 and 30 minutes to cook. The results were phenomenal. Cilantro Lime Rice, Watermelon Salsa, and Street Corn were all prepared by the VolleyChips in a fun and fast-paced showdown. The culinary creativity continued when the team made jambalaya together, each player assigned one specific role. There was the Voice, the only one allowed to read the recipe and give directions; the Hype Woman; the Shopper; the Chopper; the Opener; the Transferer; the Taster; the Pourer; and even a blindfolded Stirrer. It was teamwork at its finest and full of laughter. The fun also included an eight-game pickleball tournament where players rotated partners each round. Smiles and competitive spirit filled the courts. Congratulations to Lanie for earning the overall tournament win. This season, the VolleyChips are reading Soup by Jon Gordon to learn about the importance of teamwork and the idea that everyone has an impact. Everyone stirs the pot to success, and that was clearly on display through all their achievements this week, both on and off the court. If this week is any indication, it is going to be a special season for the VolleyChips.

On Monday June 23rd, some chipmunks from the class of 1997 celebrated birthdays and over 30 years of friendship! We love seeing our Chipmunk Sisters getting together to celebrate eachother!
