Bullying/Harassment Policy

Bullying is a distinctive pattern of repeatedly and deliberately harming and humiliating others and is characterized by a power imbalance between the two parties. Bullying includes, but is not limited to physical or verbal aggression, relational aggression, or emotional aggression (teasing, threatening, and intimidating others). Relational aggression (RA), is a form of indirect bullying that uses social relationships to manipulate or harm others, such as isolating a student

from her group of friends (social exclusion), threatening to stop talking to a

friend (the ''silent treatment''), or spreading gossip and rumors. Harassment includes, but is not limited to, slurs, jokes, comments, or other offensive conduct relating to race, religion, color, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, citizenship, disability, or any other legally protected characteristic. Bullying, relational aggression (including cyber-bullying), and harassment will not be tolerated. Please use the forms below to report bullying.

Nine Chapelle Students Join the Catholic Church

By Jamie Hanzo • 13 May, 2024
We are so proud of our nine students who joined the Catholic Church at this year's Easter Vigil. We walked with each student to connect them to the RCIA Program at their parishes, and met monthly so they could journey together as a Chapelle family!  They have grown so much in their faith and we are so proud of them! It is truly inspiring and exciting to watch Chapelle students build a relationship with our Lord. God is so good! ✨Zureidy Bolanos ✨Kolleen Dubroc ✨Kayla Giardina ✨Sameera Gulati ✨Dalila Gulati ✨Remy Marshall ✨Mia Sanchez ✨Allisson Suazo ✨McKenzie Verges

May Crowning Celebration at Chapelle

By Jamie Hanzo • 13 May, 2024
"Our Lady of Prompt Succor, Hasten to Help Us" 🙏 We celebrated our final school Mass by honoring Our Blessed Mother at our annual May Crowning Mass. Our newly elected Student Council President, Sophie Panzavecchia, crowned Mary with flowers. New E-Board Vice President, Avery Schexnaydre, presented her with a bouquet. We also honored those who attended District and State Literary Rally, as well as the softball team for their State Championship win! In our daily prayers we ask for the Blessed Mother's guidance, in hopes that she will give us the wisdom to accept God's graces and assist us in our trials. #DeusProvidebit , God Will Provide!

Chapelle Students Earn St. Timothy Award

By Jamie Hanzo • 13 May, 2024
Two Archbishop Chapelle High School students were presented the St. Timothy Award in April for their leadership, service and good moral standards exhibited through their work with church parishes and the archdiocesan community. The two Chapelle students are Abigail Fortado and Morgan Gaudet! Abigail Fortado, St. Catherine of Siena, Metairie: Abigail served on the Archbishop Chapelle campus ministry team. She is also a member of Teen CROSS and attended the March for Life in Washington, D.C. Her campus minister shared this about Abigail, “She is passionate about the Gospel and is quick to work to evangelize those around her...I see her go after the lost sheep, the outsiders, the lonely. She befriends them, meets them where they are and loves them there.” Morgan Gaudet, St. Benilde, Metairie: Morgan is a member of Teen Cross and serves as a board member for St. Benilde's youth ministry. She also served on teh Archbishop Chapelle campus ministry team. Her campus minister shared these words about Morgan, “The depth of Morgan's relationship with Jesus sets her apart...She has gone to a level of prayer, trust and confidence in God that I do not see in most high school students.”
