BCHS Alumni Give Back at Career Day

It is always such a great day! Thank you to the following alumni who took time from their busy schedules to speak to our students:

Chatard-a-Bration 2026 - Saturday, February 21

Grab your warmest gear and join our outdoor cocktail reception on the grounds of Bishop Chatard for Chatard-a-Bration 2026! You’ll find cozy firepits to keep you warm as you enjoy your favorite drink, try your hand at an outdoor game, or listen to the sounds of live guitar music. Before the fires die down, we’ll head inside with hundreds of your favorite Bishop Chatard Trojans for the warmth of the ‘lodge,’ to continue bidding on the auction, both live and silent, enjoy a delicious dinner, and take in live entertainment from local band The Downstairs Dads.

Watch for tickets to go on sale in early January: $150 individual or $1,500 for a table.

Recap: Christmas on Crittenden 2026

Families enjoyed meeting a live reindeer, hot chocolate, crafts, and sweet treats while students and volunteers helped create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. It was a wonderful opportunity to bring people together and celebrate the season while sharing the joy of Christmas!
