Student Life

Chaminade

Spirit

Spirit at Chaminade is alive on both campuses. At the middle school level, students are introduced to Marianist Family Spirit through the House System. Each student will be a part of a mixed-grade house working towards a common goal throughout the school year to win the house cup. The high school is home to the infamous Eagles Nest and The Cage, where our athletic programs are given support by screaming proud fans! If you ask any student what sets Chaminade apart from other schools, the answer would be Family Spirit!

Student Activities provides an opportunity for all students to be engaged in campus life. We offer more than 50 different clubs at each campus as well as special monthly activities that every student has the opportunity to participate in. These include social events, spirit rallies, class/house unity events, diversity workshops, guest speaker programs and service projects. We also provide opportunities for students to embrace leadership roles and develop positive character traits, explore their gifts and talents, and create lasting memories and friendships. Our two campuses collaborate to create a seven-year student activities program where all students work together to foster Eagle pride. Student life at Chaminade is best described through the experience of the students themselves.

Student Council not only introduced me to many new friends from all different ages, but it also allowed me to grow personally into the best version of myself I could be at Chaminade.

Abe Eagle, ‘21

The house system helped me to make friends- allowing me to meet people older and younger and create a bond. The excitement at the rallies and competitions helped especially during the transition to high school for it is very similar to the competitive atmosphere at high school rallies.
