Chappelle Chipmunks win third Vocabulary Bowl in school’s history

METAIRIE, La. (WGNO) — They’ve got a way with words and these Louisiana ladies like to learn.

And as WGNO Good Morning New Orleans features reporter Bill Wood says, you’re also about to learn that they are the champions.

They dig deep into the dictionary.

That’s how they study and that’s how they became the winners of the Vocabulary Bowl.

“Vocabulary is very important because it helps you know the meaning of the word and articulate exactly what you’re trying to say.”

It’s an international online battle.

The Chappelle Chipmunks at the Archbishop Chappell High School in Metairie, are the top school in the state.

Chipmunks are cute and cuddly although underneath they are powerful and important to our community. Just like us.”

They are the very definition of the team that puts powerhouse points on the scoreboard.

So far they have mastered 12,817 words to win the title for the third time in Chappelle history.

They are the Chipmunks.

And they are the champions.
