Trinity Club
The Bishop Chatard Trinity Club is the original parent organization at BCHS still going strong today. Engagement in the Trinity Club enables parents to stay actively involved in the lives of students and the Bishop Chatard School community. In the process, friendships are made and bonds are created that will last well beyond your children’s high school years!
Simply by being a BCHS parent or guardian, you are already a member!

Updated January 2022
School closings or delays will be available on the following local T.V. stations: Channel 4 (CBS),
Channel 6 (ABC), Channel 8 (CW), Channel 13 (NBC) and Channel 59 (FOX). School closings
will also be posted on our website (www.bishopchatard.org) and sent via phone, text and email
using the phone numbers and email addresses available. We will also announce school closings
via various twitter accounts including @BishopChatardHS and @BCHS_Principal.
When it comes to two-hour delays or cancellations, stakeholders will most likely be informed by 6:00 a.m. and no later than 6:30 a.m.
Bishop Chatard High School could potentially utilize the option of an eLearning day for canceled school days due to weather. In the event this would occur, the campus will be closed.
Students are required to utilize their iPad or other electronic device and complete course content in Canvas. The courses regularly scheduled for the in-person school day will still be conducted, only in a virtual format. Students will work through their school day in an asynchronous manner at their own pace and schedule, while meeting due dates established by the teacher. View the day to day schedule of classes here.
What should a student do on a Snow-Asynchronous eLearning Day?
- Students will utilize Canvas for class instructional material. Students are expected to check every course in Canvas by 10:00 a.m. and work through the course material at their own pace.
- Students are required to complete an attendance form for each class. Each teacher will post the attendance form via a Google form or Canvas Quiz on their Canvas page. Failure to complete the form will result in a student being marked unexcused for that particular class and work submitted will not receive credit.
- Students are required to complete and submit all coursework as defined by the teacher.
Student work will be graded and recorded in Powerschool. Work is due at the date/time defined by the teacher. - All teachers will be available for questions between 9:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. via email or Canvas discussion board. Teachers will respond to student questions within one hour.
If your child is ill, please follow normal attendance protocol. Information can be found on the Bishop Chatard website:
