Bishop Chatard's previous version of PowerSchool is no longer being used, and the Archdiocese of Indianapolis has created a new PowerSchool account. If you have not already done so, use this link and create a new account.
The information that you will need to create this account was sent out earlier this month through the Archdiocese PowerSchool Document Delivery system and through the US postal service. Old information from previous years will not work to create your new account. After you have created your account and are asked to verify your email address, be sure to look in your spam folder for that verification. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please let Ame Alerding know if you have any questions at aalerding@bishopchatard.org.

SAT testing day for Seniors on October 12 |
The Bishop Chatard Class of 2023 will have an additional opportunity to take the SAT at BCHS on the day juniors are taking the PSAT (Oct. 12). This gives a chance for current seniors to boost their score.
Seniors should still complete college applications prior to November 1 using March scores. There is a $60 fee unless students qualify for an SAT waiver from Free/Reduced Lunch Status. If students choose not to take the SAT, they can use the day to make a college visit.

Starting at 4:30 p.m. and until kickoff at 6 p.m., please meet our Enrollment team near the Saint Benedict Center between the Rock and the Trojan Horse tailgate at our pop-up tent to pick up your BCHS rally towel and say "hi"! After that, make your way to the Trojan Tailgate to meet members of our parent volunteer group, the Trinity Club, and grab a burger or hot dog. The Trojan Horse will also be taking goodwill donations to support their efforts.
Our wonderful art teachers and members of our Art Club will be on hand in the Trojan Tailgate for face painting. After that, head to stadium to see what Friday Night Lights at BCHS is all about and enjoy the game. Don't forget your grade school student's Future Trojan Pass for them to get in free of charge!
