Chapel Renovations
The Goal
To create a sacred, purpose-built space where students and staff can encounter Christ more deeply through prayer, worship, and quiet reflection. This chapel will support spiritual growth and reflect the heart of our Catholic mission.
The History
The space currently used as our chapel has a unique story. It began as the principal’s office, transitioned into a classroom, and eventually became a space for prayer. As our school’s faith life has evolved, the need for a more appropriate worship space has become increasingly clear.
