The Archbishop Chapelle High School Grandparents Club was formed in October 2016. With a membership of about 22 grandparents, they provided a “Treat Day” for the students 3 times during the remainder of the school year, where snacks and homemade goodies were sold to the girls during the snack break. Club members also hosted a special breakfast for the faculty and staff during Catholic Schools Week.

With a present membership of almost 225, the grandparents are now pleased to see their grandchildren not only on scheduled Treat Days, but at several early morning candy hand-outs as they come to school, greeting potential Chipmunks at Open House, participating in the annual Craft Fairs and many other school-wide programs. Members have a Social in September as well as 4 luncheon meetings a year, where representatives of the faculty and staff are welcomed and introduced.  Grandparents are often called on to participate in many other volunteer opportunities at Chapelle that may arise during the school year. The students are proud of their grandparents for participating in one of the first such clubs in the New Orleans Archdiocesan high schools.
