School from 1974 to 2003, recently passed away
while traveling in Madrid, Spain.
"Mr.

teaching English, Comparative World Culture and
American Literature. He was very active on the
BCHS campus serving as English department chair,

a world traveler, wonderful teacher and friend.
His countless contributions to our school have
made him a BCHS icon.

Golden
Opportunities Capital
Campaign
A
message from BCHS President Bill
Sahm:
The
past 50 years at Bishop Chatard High School have
been nothing short of remarkable thanks to all of
the faculty and staff, parents, students and
friends of Bishop Chatard who have contributed to
the success of over 8,000 graduates. I believe
that the future holds even more promise thanks to
the generosity of those who have supported the
50th Anniversary Golden Opportunities Campaign. We
have currently raised $3,986,879.04
toward our goal of $4.5 million and fully expect
to meet this milestone in time to make all of the
planned improvements by August 2012!
We
are challenging all of our Bishop Chatard alumni
to carry our campaign over the goal and secure a
strong foundation for the next generation of
students. Please know that every gift, regardless
of the pledge amount, is crucial to the success of
this campaign and will be greatly appreciated by
all the current and future BCHS families. Click here to pledge online and show
your Trojan Spirit!
God
Bless,
Bill

Dear
Alumni,
Welcome
to 2012! With every new year comes new resolutions.
Have you made your New Year's resolutions yet? I
would like to challenge you to keep Bishop Chatard in
mind when making your resolutions! Here are some
ideas: try to make it to a Bishop Chatard athletic
event; join the BCHS Booster Club; attend the Fall play
or Spring Musical; nominate an alumni for the Bishop
Chatard Achievement Awards; support the GO Campaign
(no amount is too small); or attend the Annual Fund
Dinner.
Also,
please remember to keep Bishop Chatard alumni, students,
faculty and staff in your prayers!
I look
forward to hearing from you during the year and wish you
much happiness and success in 2012!
God
Bless,
