Alumna Spotlight: Tara Centanni Reese ’88 Elected President of CCSCC Archbishop Chapelle High School is proud to celebrate Tara Centanni Reese ’88 on her recent election as President of the Council of Catholic School Cooperative Clubs (CCSCC). Tara has dedicated her professional life to education, serving 23 years with Jefferson Parish Public Schools. She currently works as a Master Teacher (Instructional Coach) at Isaac G. Joseph at Stella Worley, a PreK–8 school. For more than a decade, she has served as a Master Teacher in various schools across the parish, mentoring educators and supporting instructional growth.

At St. Clement of Rome, she served as President and Vice-President of the Co-Op Club, and for the past four years, she has been a member of the Hospitality Committee for Chapelle’s Parent Club. Her election as President of the CCSCC comes after 10 years of service on the council, including time as 2nd Vice-President and participation on numerous committees. Reflecting on her time at Chapelle, Tara shares, "Chapelle prepared me both academically and spiritually for the path I have taken. It gave me the skills and confidence to succeed in my profession while instilling the values, faith, and commitment to service that continue to guide my volunteer work." We are incredibly proud of Tara’s leadership, dedication to Catholic education, and continued service to our community. Congratulations on this well-deserved honor!

Class of 2021 Celebrates 5 Years at Rock ‘n’ Bowl On Saturday, July 18, the Class of 2021 came together to celebrate their 5-Year Reunion at Rock ‘n’ Bowl, and it was a night to remember! From the moment they walked in, it was clear that the bond of sisterhood is still going strong. The evening was filled with laughter, hugs, and plenty of memories from their time at Chapelle. It didn’t take long for the dance floor to fill as classmates reconnected and celebrated five years since graduation. Each alumna received a special 5-Year Reunion exclusive trucker hat, a fun keepsake to mark this milestone and commemorate their first official reunion together. The hats were proudly worn throughout the night as the class danced and enjoyed being back together.  Five years may have passed, but once a Chipmunk, always a Chipmunk. We loved seeing the Class of 2021 back together and can’t wait to watch them continue to shine in the years ahead.
