(Redirected from Archbishop Chapelle)
'Archbishop Chapelle High School' is a Catholic secondary school for young women. It is located in Metairie, a community in unincorporated Jefferson Parish, Louisiana, United States. The school colors are green and white, and the mascot is a chipmunk. The school motto is 'Deus Providebit' which, in Latin, means 'God Will Provide.'
Archbishop Chapelle High School was founded in 1962 by the Archdiocese of New Orleans and was named after Archbishop Placide Louis Chapelle, the first Archbishop of New Orleans in the twentieth century. The Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word staffed the school. In the first year, there were 236 students with nine teachers, which included four religious and four lay teachers. An additional grade was added each year thereafter until the 1965-1966 school season, which also saw Chapelle's first graduating class. It currently acts as a college preparatory school for over 1,000 students[2].
There are several foreign language courses available to students from grades 8-12, including French, Spanish, and Latin. All foreign languages offer courses 1 through 5.
Until 2006, Latin and Greek were offered and taught by Mr. Kevin Trower. Due to his departure, Greek is no longer offered, and a new Latin program is being established.
In addition to traditional secondary school classes, Chapelle also offers include fine arts courses, drama, publications studies (including yearbook and newspaper), family and consumer studies, business courses (including computer studies and accounting), and religion[3].
Some clubs available are: Ambassadors, French Club, Intramural Sports, Key Club, Matthew 25 Service Program, Mu Alpha Theta, National Art Honor Society, National Honor Society, National Junior Beta Club, National Spanish Honor Society, Student Council, and Varsity Quiz Bowl. In addition to these, there are other more specialized clubs listed on the high school's website[4].
Several clubs are in coordination with Chapelle's "brother school" Archbishop Rummel High School, an all-male Catholic secondary school also located in Metairie. Chapelle Honors Advanced band students are members of the Archbishop Rummel Band. The Chapellettes are a dance team that accompany the Rummel Band.
