5 Tips on how to be the best Ambassador!


 ` Our Ambassadors are a huge part of Chapelle and these tips are important to show you how to be the best leader as an ambassador! 


Be a role model:  As an ambassador, it is important that you are a model of what a Chapelle top student looks like.  As a role model, you should always be responsible for your own things. For example, taking on the responsibility of being an ambassador, is wearing your ambassador blazer to Liturgy days and formal events. 


Participation: To be the best ambassador possible, you should want to dress up for all the spirit days, especially the themed days at summer camp.  Many people, little kids, and Chapelle students, look up to ambassadors.  They should always be willing to go all out for everything!


 Positive energy: A Chapelle Ambassador always has a positive attitude and a smile on their face! Smiles will be contagious to all of the potential chips that come to all of the events! If an ambassador does not have a positive attitude it will start to rub off on everyone at the event which will make future chips not want to attend Chapelle events anymore! If you want to become an ambassador, always make sure to have a big smile and a positive attitude!


Be helpful when someone is in need: At any event or at school, You should be the first person who is ready to help someone if they ask for it. Even if you don't know how to help, try your best and make their experience better. Someone may be too scared to ask for help so you should kindly walk up and help! This is showing that Chapelle ambassadors are always there for anyone and we will always lend a hand to help. 



BE HYPE! As an ambassador, you show younger kids what Chapelle is all about. So, being hype about Chapelle shows the kids that Chapelle always has something fun going on and how we love Chapelle. Also, when you’re hype, it will influence the others around you. 


Our director of admissions, Mrs. Kacey Pierce, leads us in all of our recruiting events as ambassadors.  She is our guide and who we go to whenever we need help.  To become an ambassador, you must apply and get accepted.  She takes this job very seriously because she truly wants the best of the best, as she says, "Having the best ambassadors available when prospective students are on campus is essential because they represent the heart and spirit of the school. Their enthusiasm, knowledge, and genuine experiences help create a welcoming environment, allowing visitors to truly envision themselves as part of our community."- Mrs. Pierce

Alumna Spotlight: Tiffany Willis Donovan ’10 We are proud to shine this week’s Alumna Spotlight on Tiffany Willis Donovan ’10, who is making an impact both on and off the sidelines at Tulane University. For the past five years, Tiffany has served as a coach for the Tulane University Cheer Team, mentoring and guiding collegiate athletes through some of the most formative years of their lives. Tiffany shares that what she loves most about coaching is helping her athletes grow — not only in their skills and performance, but as confident, capable young adults. Watching them develop their talent, build resilience, and step into leadership roles is what makes the experience so meaningful. Being part of such an important chapter in their lives, both on and off the mat, is something Tiffany does not take lightly. Her dedication reflects the same spirit of encouragement, leadership, and sisterhood that began during her time at Chapelle.  We are so proud of the positive example Tiffany continues to set and the lives she is helping shape through her passion and mentorship.

Erin Black Comeaux ’99 Inspires Future Builders We were proud to welcome alumna Erin Black Comeaux ’99, Sector Leader – Commercial Construction at RNGD, LLC, as part of our Career Engagement Speaker Series. In her role, Erin is responsible for sourcing and leading commercial construction projects that are not multi-family (apartments) or hospitality (hotels). Her work helps bring to life the schools, retail spaces, offices, and public facilities that serve communities every day. Exploring Careers in Construction Erin introduced students to RNGD, a multifaceted company operating across the Southeast in four sectors: - Building - Steel - Infrastructure - Manufacturing From schools and data centers to retail and civic spaces, RNGD’s projects demonstrate how construction shapes skylines and strengthens communities. She emphasized that construction is more than what people see on a jobsite. The industry offers endless career paths — including project management, engineering, estimating, technology, finance, marketing, safety, and skilled trades. Whether a student enjoys hands-on work, leadership, problem-solving, or working with digital tools, there is a place for them in this field. Building the Future Erin also highlighted RNGD’s commitment to community impact through education, workforce development, and scholarships, reinforcing that construction is about building people and opportunities — not just structures.  Her visit helped students see the wide range of possibilities available after graduation. We are grateful to Erin for sharing her journey and inspiring the next generation to consider careers that quite literally build the future.

Chipmunks Attend Close Up 2026 Six students just wrapped up an incredible week in Washington, D.C. with the Close Up Foundation. From walking the halls of Congress to debating the issues that matter most, these young leaders got a front-row seat to democracy in action.  More than just monuments and museums; it was also about finding their voice and understanding their roles as citizens!

Chapelle Robotics Heads to State! Our Chapelle Robotics Team is headed to the Louisiana V5RC High School State Championship, sponsored by Venture Global! The championship will take place February 26–27, 2026, at the Louisiana Region 5 STEM Center at Lake Charles Boston Academy of Learning.  This prestigious, invitation‑only event brings together the top 40 VEX V5 high school robotics teams in Louisiana to celebrate their accomplishments and compete in the 2025–2026 VEX V5 Robotics Competition. We are incredibly proud that our team has earned a spot among the state’s best! How the Competition Works 🔹 Two Days of Action Day 1: Robot inspections and qualifying matches Day 2: Skills challenges, additional qualifying rounds, alliance selections, and the final championship matches 🔹 Match Format Each match features four teams at a time. Two teams form an alliance and compete against another two‑team alliance. Working together, alliances score points by driving their robots to complete game‑specific tasks — such as moving game pieces, scoring goals, and strategically positioning their robots on the field. 🔹 The Goal Teams compete to earn high rankings during the qualifying rounds. Top‑ranked teams then select alliance partners for the elimination finals — where collaboration, strategy, innovation, and engineering excellence truly shine. Qualifying for State is an incredible achievement and a testament to the countless hours our students have dedicated to designing, building, programming, and refining their robots. We are so proud of their hard work, teamwork, and perseverance. Good luck to our Robotics Team as they represent Chapelle at the State Championship! 💚🤖
