Chapelle Alumnae Return to Campus for College & Sorority Panel Archbishop Chapelle High School recently welcomed back seven alumnae who returned to campus to share their college experiences and offer valuable insight to our current students. The College Panel provided an engaging and informative opportunity for students to ask questions and learn firsthand about life after Chapelle. During the panel, alumnae spoke openly about a wide range of topics—from everyday campus life and academics to time management, housing, and balancing responsibilities. Students also received helpful advice on what they can begin doing now to prepare for college, both academically and personally. Following the college discussion, students had the opportunity to participate in a Sorority Panel, where two alumnae shared their experiences with Greek life. These conversations offered insight into the recruitment process, involvement opportunities, and how sorority life can support personal growth and community building in college. College Panel Participants Louisiana State University: Marie Rohli ’23 & Sophie Panzavecchia ’25 University of Notre Dame: Savanna Corales ’25 Mississippi State University: Katie Pertuit ’24 & Olivia Myer ’25 Colorado University: Stella Merrill ’25 University of Southern Mississippi : Caroline Gutierrez ’24 Sorority Panel Participants Colleen O’Connor ’23 Harlie Stevens ’24 We are grateful to these alumnae for giving back to the Chapelle community and helping guide the next generation of Chipmunks as they prepare for their college journeys. Their willingness to share their experiences is a powerful reminder that once a Chipmunk, always a Chipmunk!
💖 THEY’RE BAAACK! Welcoming Home the Class of 2025 💖 There’s nothing quite like welcoming our alumnae back home—and this week, Archbishop Chapelle High School was filled with joy as the Class of 2025 returned to campus for their Yearbook Social. Our newest Chipmunk alumnae spent the morning reconnecting with classmates, sharing hugs, laughter, and flipping through their freshly printed yearbooks. Each page sparked memories of friendships formed, milestones celebrated, and unforgettable moments that defined their Chapelle journey. It was truly heartwarming to see the excitement on their faces as they reminisced and reflected on the years they spent growing, learning, and building sisterhood within our green‑and‑white halls. Seeing their smiles reminded us that while their time as students has ended, their connection to Chapelle will always remain. We are so proud of the young women they have become and grateful that Chapelle will forever be part of their story. Once a Chipmunk, always a Chipmunk!
A Wonderful Evening with the Chapelle Alumnae Book Club 📚💚 The Chapelle Alumnae Book Club gathered once again for a warm, spirited, and engaging meeting—an evening filled with conversation, connection, and the unmistakable joy of Chipmunk sisterhood. Alumnae of all ages came together to share thoughtful reflections, plenty of laughs, and, of course, some truly delicious snacks. These gatherings continue to be a beautiful reminder of how strong the Chapelle bond remains long after graduation. Whether attendees came eager to discuss the book, reconnect with old friends, or simply enjoy an evening of community, the atmosphere was welcoming and lively from start to finish. The thoughtful dialogue and shared perspectives sparked meaningful conversations that lingered well beyond the final page. We’re already looking forward to our next meeting on Wednesday, February 4th, at 6:00 PM! The next book selection will be revealed soon, so stay tuned—and feel free to invite fellow Chipmunks. New faces are always welcome, and the group is excited to grow. If you’ve been considering joining, now is the perfect time. The Chapelle Alumnae Book Club is a wonderful way to stay connected, make new friends, and keep the Chipmunk spirit alive through literature, community, and shared experiences.

PRAYER CARDS
Prayer Card Information
Send a Prayer Card RequestFirst, identify which type of Prayer Card you would like to send:
General Prayer Cards:
Our Chapelle Prayer Cards are sent on behalf of the school to any alumna in need of prayers—whether facing illness, hardship, or another difficult time. It’s a simple yet meaningful way to remind our Chapelle sisters that they are never alone and that their Chapelle family is praying for them.
Memorial Prayer Cards
When a member of our Chapelle family is called home to God, we honor her life and legacy through a Chapelle Memorial Card. Sent to the family on behalf of the school, these cards let loved ones know that we are praying for them and for the eternal rest of the alumna’s soul. It’s our way of keeping every Chipmunk, past and present, close in faith and remembrance.
Catholic Schools Week Celebrated Through Mass & Faith at Chapelle As part of Catholic Schools Week, Archbishop Chapelle High School came together as one faith‑filled community to celebrate Mass with our entire student body, reflecting on the many blessings of Catholic education and our shared Chapelle mission. Before Mass began, we proudly recognized two outstanding students as the Chapelle Students of the Year. Emily Ledet (12th grade) and Milan Vitrano (8th grade) were honored for their leadership, character, faith, and commitment to the values of Archbishop Chapelle High School. We are so proud of these students and the example they set for our community. Mass was celebrated by Father Austin Barr, who reminded us in his homily of the heart of our Catholic mission, sharing, “As Catholics, to know and love God is our mission. And our mission starts new every single day.” His words encouraged students and faculty alike to recommit daily to living out their faith through love, service, and purpose. Following Mass, the Chapelle community participated in a Eucharistic Procession to the Barn, where Adoration and Confession were offered to students, faculty, and staff who wished to spend time in prayer with the Lord. This sacred time allowed our community to pause, reflect, and grow spiritually together. It was a truly beautiful day—one that highlighted the importance of faith, tradition, and unity within Catholic education. We are grateful to celebrate Catholic Schools Week surrounded by prayer, gratitude, and the Chapelle family.
Vocations Panel Inspires Chapelle Students During Catholic Schools Week As part of Catholic Schools Week, Archbishop Chapelle High School hosted a meaningful Vocations Panel during lunch on Tuesday, giving students the opportunity to learn more about the many ways God may be calling them to live out their faith. The panel was designed to answer students’ questions and encourage thoughtful reflection on the different vocations within the Church. Students heard from three inspiring women, each representing a unique and beautiful path of vocation: Jessie Dupuy Dupré '09 , who spoke about the vocation of marriage and motherhood, sharing how faith shapes family life and everyday living. Margie Lademan , a Consecrated Woman with Regnum Christi, who offered insight into a life dedicated fully to Christ through consecrated lay life. Sister Maria Caeli , of the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia, who shared her journey and experiences living out a religious vocation. Through their personal stories and witness, each speaker showed students how Christ is present and active in their lives, regardless of vocation. The panel encouraged our Chipmunks to listen closely to God’s call, trust in His plan, and remain open to where He may lead them. We are grateful to these incredible women for visiting our campus and sharing their faith, wisdom, and joy. Their presence was a beautiful reminder that God’s call is unique for each person—and that every vocation is a gift.
Our Career Engagement Speaker Series brings Chapelle alumnae back to campus to share their professional experiences and career journeys with current students.
It’s an inspiring opportunity for Chipmunks to learn firsthand about different fields, ask questions, and gain insight into future career paths — all while connecting with alumnae who once walked the same halls. We love welcoming our graduates home to guide and encourage the next generation of Chapelle women!
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.

WWL and Credit Human recognize exceptional teachers across the region for their dedication, passion, and commitment to making a difference. That remarkable honor was bestowed upon one of our very own. A Well-Deserved Recognition Mrs. Taix, who teaches with unmatched heart and enthusiasm, was presented with the award during a surprise visit from the WWL crew. Surrounded by students and colleagues, she stood proudly as she received a $2,000 award from Credit Human—an acknowledgment of the incredible impact she makes on Chapelle Chipmunks every single day. From her creative teaching methods to the genuine care she pours into each student, Mrs. Taix embodies the mission of Chapelle. She inspires her students to think deeply, work hard, and believe in themselves. Her classroom is more than a place of learning—it’s a place where young women grow in confidence, character, and curiosity. Inspiring the Next Generation As an alumna of the Class of 1996, Mrs. Taix continues the legacy of Chapelle women who lead with faith, love, and dedication. Her influence extends far beyond the walls of her classroom, and her students are a testament to the power of a teacher who truly believes in their potential.

Thank you for everything you do to inspire, educate, and empower the young women of Archbishop Chapelle High School.

STEM Takes Flight with Alumna Speaker Shelby Frazier ’20! ✈️ The STEM Club got a high-flying dose of inspiration this week, thanks to alumna Shelby Frazier ’20, who returned to Chapelle to share her passion for aviation and engineering! Shelby led a fun, interactive presentation all about airplanes and their inner workings, teaching students how lift, drag, and thrust work together to keep planes soaring through the sky. After learning the science behind flight, the students put their knowledge to the test by designing and creating their own paper airplanes — aiming to see whose plane could travel the farthest! The results were filled with creativity, friendly competition, and lots of laughter. We’re so proud of Shelby for continuing to represent Chapelle’s values of Faith, Tradition, and Excellence in her field, and for inspiring our students to reach new heights — literally!
Career Engagement Spotlight: Jan Mau Hill ’81 💚✨ Our Career Engagement Speaker, Jan Mau Hill ’81, reminds us that faith and flexibility can lead to incredible journeys! 🌟 Jan is a talented fiction author, having published 12 novels — including a four-book young adult series and eight (and counting!) other novels in the works. Before becoming a full-time writer in 2019, Jan built an impressive career in the professional world, working in advertising at a Fortune 200 agency and in corporate marketing within the food service industry. However, she felt called to take a leap of faith and embrace her passion for storytelling — a decision that allowed her to live her dream as a published author. In her talk, Jan shared powerful wisdom with our students: “Career choices often change with age and interest — nothing in life is set in stone. Follow your path with God’s grace, and it will lead you exactly where you need to be.” 🙏 Jan’s story beautifully illustrates that success isn’t always a straight line — sometimes, with faith and courage, new chapters can lead to the most fulfilling destinations. 💚

The Word Shares the Excitement for Incarnate Word Hall Ahead of #iGiveCatholic Day 💚✨ In the spirit of community, generosity, and Chapelle pride, members of The Word, Archbishop Chapelle High School’s official student newspaper, set out this week to capture the voices behind the excitement for Incarnate Word Hall—our future Chapel and Theology wing. Students interviewed alumnae, teachers, and fellow Chipmunks to ask one simple question: “How excited are you for Incarnate Word Hall?” The responses were overflowing with enthusiasm. From alumnae eager to see a new sacred space on campus, to teachers thrilled for the spiritual and educational opportunities the building will bring, to students imagining the impact on future generations—everyone shared a deep sense of pride and anticipation. Their interviews weren’t just about gathering reactions. The Word created this feature to help spread awareness and inspire support for #iGiveCatholic, a day dedicated to uplifting Catholic communities through generosity. By highlighting the shared excitement for Incarnate Word Hall, they helped show just how meaningful this project is to the entire Chapelle family. We're proud of our student journalists for using their voices to promote connection, faith, and community support. Their work reminds us that Incarnate Word Hall is more than a building—it's a promise for the future of Chapelle.

Chapelle Shares Gratitude Through 2025 Thanksgiving Baskets 🦃🧺 The spirit of giving was alive and overflowing at Archbishop Chapelle High School this Thanksgiving season! As part of our annual Thanksgiving Basket Drive, students, faculty, and staff worked together to create beautiful baskets filled with food and essentials for families in need. This year, the baskets were donated to the St. Mary Magdalen Food Pantry as well as six other families in our Chapelle community. Each Burrow, along with members of the faculty and staff, completed a full basket — totaling over 40 baskets donated! In addition, the Chapelle family collected more than 600 items as part of the drive. This service effort beautifully reflects the mission of our Matthew 25 Service Program, which reminds us of Christ’s words: “...we see you hungry and feed you.” We are so proud of our Chipmunks for living out their faith through compassion, generosity, and action. Because of your kindness, many families will experience comfort, hope, and joy this Thanksgiving season.
