Civics in Action: Students Debate, Campaign, and Cast Their Votes Learning about presidential elections came to life in Mrs. Linegang '20's Civics Honors class as students participated in a mock presidential debate and election to choose their class president. From developing campaign platforms to casting ballots, students experienced the election process firsthand while exploring how the Electoral College shapes the outcome of a presidential race. Building a Campaign Platform Student candidates prepared campaign platforms proposing changes to school policies. Their ideas addressed topics such as the school calendar, bell schedule, grading policies, lunch policies, and phone policy. The assignment challenged candidates to consider issues relevant to their classmates and explain why their proposed changes deserved support. Taking the Debate Stage During the debate, candidates presented their platforms to the class. Their classmates took on the role of informed voters, listening carefully, taking notes on each candidate’s proposals, and checking off the ideas they agreed with. The debate gave candidates an opportunity to practice public speaking and persuasive communication while encouraging voters to evaluate the proposals before making their decisions. Bringing the Electoral College to Life Each voter was assigned a state to represent in the mock Electoral College. When students placed their ballots in the ballot box, their votes carried the number of electoral votes assigned to their state in an actual presidential election. Rather than determining the winner by simply counting individual ballots, the class tallied electoral votes. The candidate who earned a majority of those electoral votes won the election. This hands-on approach helped students see how states with different numbers of electoral votes contribute to the final result. A Lesson Beyond the Ballot Box The mock election brought together research, critical thinking, public speaking, and thoughtful decision-making. Candidates practiced advocating for their ideas, while voters considered different perspectives and made informed choices. By stepping into the roles of candidates and electors, our Civics Honors students turned a classroom lesson into an engaging experience in civic participation.

Alumna Spotlight: Dr. Michelle Knecht Lechler ’04 💚🎗️ A few weeks ago, in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we welcomed Dr. Michelle Knecht Lechler ’04 back to Chapelle to share her story with our students. On December 9, 2025, Michelle was diagnosed with Stage 3 triple-negative breast cancer after a screening mammogram. Over the months that followed, she underwent six months of chemotherapy, breast surgery, and radiation therapy, with additional preventive treatments planned. On August 27, 2026, Michelle was officially cancer-free! Throughout her journey, Michelle found strength in the motto she first knew as a Chipmunk. “I have trusted our motto ‘God Will Provide’ the most over the past year, and God has truly provided the most amazing medical and community support to help me through this difficult journey.” By returning to campus and sharing her experience, Michelle brought our students a meaningful reminder of the importance of caring for their health, supporting one another, and leaning on faith during uncertain times. She encourages everyone to discuss the appropriate timing of cancer screenings with their doctors and to support cancer research, with the hope of earlier detection and more cancer-free days. Thank you, Michelle, for sharing your story so openly with our students. Your Chapelle family celebrates this milestone with you and keeps you in our prayers as your care continues. 💚

The New Orleans History and Culture classes at Archbishop Chapelle High School, taught by Mrs. Beth Hook, Class of 1985, enjoyed a delicious lesson in Sicilian heritage today! We were delighted to welcome guest speaker Karen Accardo Lambert, Chapelle Class of 1973, who shared the fascinating history of the muffuletta and its Sicilian roots in New Orleans. Karen demonstrated how to prepare this iconic sandwich, and students even enjoyed a tasty sample! Karen also explored the rich history and traditions of St. Joseph Altars, explaining their significance to Sicilian immigrants and the symbolism behind the beautiful decorations, foods, and religious traditions associated with them. Our students left with a deeper appreciation for New Orleans’ Sicilian heritage, full stomachs, and Karen’s treasured family recipes for muffulettas and homemade olive salad! Thank you, Karen, for bringing New Orleans history, culture, faith, and food to life for our students!

Honoring Our Veterans, One Flag at a Time 🇺🇸 In honor of Veterans Day, Chapelle students placed American flags around campus as a visible expression of gratitude for the men and women who have served our country. Each flag offers a reminder of the courage, commitment, and sacrifice of our veterans. Together, they invite our school community to pause and reflect on the people behind that service: our family members, friends, neighbors, and those we may never meet. As a Catholic school community, we keep our veterans and their families in our prayers. We ask God to bless them, bring comfort to those carrying the lasting effects of their service, and help us work toward a more peaceful world. To all veterans, especially those within our Chapelle family: thank you for your service, your sacrifice, and your dedication to our country. We are grateful today and every day. 🇺🇸💚

October is Respect Life Month and the Month of the Rosary! To honor both of these meaningful traditions, theology classes came together to pray the rosary and meditate on the Respect Life mysteries. Students from each class volunteered to lead the different mysteries. It was a beautiful reminder of the power of prayer and the dignity of every human life.

A Senior Night to Remember: Chips Sweep Cabrini! It was a night of celebration and a victory for Chapelle volleyball! The Chips defeated Cabrini in three straight sets on Senior Night, winning 25–8, 25–12, and 25–20. The win made a special evening even sweeter as Chapelle celebrated its seniors and recognized two impressive career milestones. Standout Performances The Chips delivered across the court, with these players leading the way: Aces: Aubrey Frey — 4 Blocks: Gianna DeLucca — 2; Silah-Michele Payre — 2 Assists: Julia Bruno — 16; Izzy Wilson — 14 Digs: Julia Williams — 15; Sydney Griener — 14 Kills: Victoria McCann — 16; Audrey Dubuc — 9 From strong serving to defensive stops and powerful finishes, the victory reflected contributions throughout the lineup. Celebrating Career Milestones Senior Night also included recognition of Victoria McCann for reaching 1,500 career kills and Audrey Dubuc for reaching 1,000 career kills! These milestones represent years of hard work, dedication, and contributions to Chapelle volleyball. Celebrating both achievements alongside a Senior Night sweep made the evening one to remember. Thank You, Seniors! Congratulations to our seniors, the entire team, and their coaches on a memorable night! We’re proud of the commitment and Chipmunk spirit our seniors have brought to the court throughout their time at Chapelle. Go Chips!

Alumna Career Engagement Spotlight: Rachel Jenson Jones ’03 Archbishop Chapelle High School was proud to welcome Rachel Jenson Jones ’03, Co-founder and Chief Marketing Officer of Triton Stone Group, to campus as an Alumna Career Engagement speaker. Rachel’s visit gave students an opportunity to connect with a Chapelle graduate whose career brings together entrepreneurship, marketing, and business leadership. Hearing from an alumna helps students envision the possibilities ahead and consider how their own interests and talents might shape their futures. Exploring New Possibilities As students begin thinking about college and careers, connecting with professionals offers a valuable perspective on life beyond the classroom. Rachel’s experience as a co-founder and marketing executive introduced our Chipmunks to a career path that combines creativity, strategy, and leadership. Her return to Chapelle also served as a meaningful reminder that the young women sitting in our classrooms today can become the business founders, decision-makers, and community leaders of tomorrow. Alumnae Inspiring the Next Generation Through our Alumna Career Engagement Program, students connect with graduates working in a variety of fields. These visits strengthen the connection between generations of Chipmunks while encouraging students to explore their possibilities. Thank you, Rachel, for sharing your time and professional perspective with our students! We are grateful for your willingness to give back to Chapelle and help the next generation imagine what comes next.
