FROM THE HEAD OF SCHOOL
Dear Friend of Chapelle:
At Archbishop Chapelle High School, we are more than a school — we are a family. Inspirational teachers, diverse extracurricular activities, and unique learning opportunities prepare our young women not only for college but for life. Recently we continued our tradition of excellence with the opening of the state-of-the-art St. Joan of Arc Center, made possible by the generosity of donors like you.
This year, the 2024-2025 Chapelle Annual Fund will support a project close to our hearts: the creation of a remarkable space honoring our founding congregation, the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word. Named Incarnate Word Hall, this new area will stand on the site of our beloved "round building" and will pay tribute to the sisters’ legacy of faith, education, and service.
Incarnate Word Hall will be much more than just a building. With new classrooms dedicated to Theology courses and a beautiful chapel designed to accommodate student paryer services, this space will be a center for spiritual growth and learning — bringing our community together in worship and reflection.
Our vision is ambitious, and we need your support to bring it to life. Enclosed, you will find a card detailing various giving levels and naming opportunities. Visit www.archbishopchapelle.org/give to make a donation or sign up for a recurring gift to Chapelle. We hope you will consider a recurring monthly gift of $88 as part of our new $88 for 8800 Veterans Memorial Boulevard Campaign. Your support at this level will total over $1,000 annually, automatically qualifying you as a Legacy Leadership Society Member, a distinction recognized at our annual donor reception.
If you’re unable to support the project financially at this time, we ask that you consider pledging your prayers and spreading the word within the community. Your involvement, in any form, will make a difference.
Should you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me at (504) 467-3105 ext. 5109 or by email at cdantagnan@archbishopchapelle.org. You may also reach out to our Director of Advancement, Mrs. Maria Cervini Eaton ’06, at meaton@archbishopchapelle.org.
