New Sports Field was dedicated: On Saturday, Oct. 10, IndyParks hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony at Riverwood Park (7301 Crittenden Ave.) to dedicate the new park and sports field facility. A partnership between Indy Parks and BCHS has enabled the fields at Riverwood to become the practice and home fields for BCHS boys and girls soccer and lacrosse teams! The goal is to have the fields ready for competition play by next spring! See "Chatard and IndyParks partner" article on the right for further details.
After-School Student Life Center is created: By day, the Bishop Chatard Media Center serves as a place where students can locate books, conduct research and create presentations. After hours, the Media Center converts into a Student Life Center where students can comfortably wait for a ride home or for after-school activities to begin. The Student Life Center provides both the opportunity for quiet study or the chance to hang out and socialize with friends in a supervised environment.
BCHS Music and Theatre Departments Announce 2009-10 Schedule: The BCHS Music and Theatre Departments have announced their scheduled appearances and concerts for the 2009-10 school year. The new Music and Drama Booster Club page displays their schedule and the activities of the Booster Clubs. All are welcome to the events.
