Empowering Young Women Since 1927
A group of our students and teachers is preparing to travel to Kentucky this summer to serve with the Christian Appalachian Project @chrisappproj
After applying, interviewing, and being selected, they’ve spent the past weeks learning about the region, its communities, and the work they will take part in.
Our Lady of Tepeyac’s Day of Giving on December 12 was a meaningful celebration of Our Lady of Guadalupe's feast day. Students served at 12 sites across Chicago, living out our commitment to service.
The day ended back at school with time for reflection, followed by pizza and treats shared together. Day of Giving continues to remind us that service is not just something our students do, but a part of who they are. Read the full story.
In celebration of Joni Thompson’s 34 years of service and leadership at Our Lady of Tepeyac High School, we are proud to announce two exciting scholarship opportunities for our students
: a new scholarship for graduating seniors entering college and an incoming Freshwomen scholarship. Both are inspired by former President Joni Thompson’s mission and vision for young women at Tepeyac. The Joni Thompson Scholarship will support seniors as they take their next steps toward college, honoring her legacy for years to come.
Joni’s legacy is rooted in her commitment to college access. In 2008, she helped launch our College Readiness Program, leading to an extraordinary achievement: for 18 consecutive years, 100% of Tepeyac seniors have applied to and been accepted to college. The Joni Thompson Scholarship will carry that legacy forward, opening doors for future generations of Tepeyac graduates.
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the donors who made this scholarship possible.
