Celebrating the 2026 Induction Class Archbishop Chapelle Athletics Hall of Fame Archbishop Chapelle High School proudly welcomed the 2026 Induction Class of the Chapelle Athletics Hall of Fame, honoring four individuals whose talent, dedication, and school spirit have left a lasting mark on our athletic tradition. Margaret Bayard ’76 Our first inductee, Margaret Bayard (Class of 1976), was a standout three‑sport athlete, competing in basketball, volleyball, and indoorball during her time at Chapelle. Margaret was a member of the 1976 City Basketball Championship team and the 1975 City Indoorball Championship team, contributing to a dominant era in Chapelle athletics. She continued her basketball career at the University of Southwestern Louisiana, carrying her Chipmunk pride to the collegiate level. Patricia Toujouse ’77 Our second inductee, Patricia Toujouse (Class of 1977), also excelled in basketball, volleyball, and indoorball. She was a key member of the 1975 City Indoorball Championship team and the 1976 City Basketball Championship team. Patricia went on to compete in both volleyball and basketball at Tulane University, demonstrating the strong athletic foundation she built at Chapelle. While Patricia was unable to attend the ceremony, she was proudly represented by her sister, Cheryl Prieur. Jerrye Modenbach ’78 The third inductee, Jerrye Modenbach (Class of 1978), was another remarkable multi‑sport athlete, participating in basketball, volleyball, and indoorball. Jerrye’s accomplishments include being a member of the: - 1975 City Indoorball Championship team - 1976 City Basketball Championship team - 1977 City Volleyball Championship team She continued her athletic career at Tulane University, playing both volleyball and basketball. Her achievements reflect both individual excellence and a deep commitment to teamwork. Ms. Linda Munn The fourth inductee, Ms. Linda Munn, dedicated 38 years to Chapelle as a physical education teacher and coach. Throughout her extraordinary career, she coached basketball, volleyball, gymnastics, track and field, golf, and cheer, shaping generations of Chipmunk athletes. In her honor, Chapelle presents the Linda Munn Award each sports season during the Athletic Awards Ceremony. This award recognizes one member of every team who exemplifies sportsmanship, teamwork, kindness, school pride, and a commitment to representing Chapelle with integrity. These are the very qualities Ms. Munn modeled throughout her decades of service. The 2026 Hall of Fame class represents excellence across generations — from championship athletes to a legendary coach whose influence continues to be felt today.  Congratulations to all of our inductees. Your legacy is forever part of Chapelle Athletics. 💚

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!

Welcome Home, Chipmunks! Thank you for sharing your "Acceptance Day" moments with us. We are so excited to finally have you all as part of the Chapelle Family. This is just the beginning!

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! 💚🤖

2026 Chapelle Makes A Difference Day 🌟 25 Agencies. One Mission. Endless Impact. 💚 Chapelle’s annual Makes A Difference Day once again brought our entire student body into the heart of the community for a day rooted in service, compassion, and purpose. This year, our Chipmunks partnered with 25 incredible organizations across Louisiana, dedicating their time and energy to meeting real needs and forming meaningful connections. From environmental stewardship and hands‑on service projects to spending time with residents, supporting teachers, organizing donations, and assisting local ministries, our students truly served as the hands and feet of Christ throughout the day. Whether offering a helping hand or simply sharing a smile and conversation, the impact was felt far beyond a single afternoon. This powerful tradition reflects the heart of a Chapelle education—forming young women who lead with faith, act with compassion, and serve with joy. We are incredibly proud of the way our students continue to step beyond our campus walls to make a difference where it matters most.
