For three weeks this summer, a group of Jesuit seniors and juniors participated in our first ever Marine Biology course. Under the instruction of science teachers Mr. Ben Kirby and Dr. Todd Gruninger, students studied the basics of marine biology in the classroom at Jesuit for two weeks before traveling to the beautiful British Virgin Islands.
During the first week,...
Ultra-lightweight racers zipped around the room as students in PMM Engineering presented their solar cars on Tuesday, November 4. The cars demonstrated students’ comprehension of renewable energy and tested their ability to apply it on a practical level.
PMM Engineering highlights petroleum, biomedical, and mechanical engineering. As a precursor to petroleum engineering, students learn about alternate energy forms. The class...
“Hands On”

Over the summer of 2019, three students of Jesuit's Medical Society participated in the S.T.A.R.S. Program. The S.T.A.R.S. (Science Teacher Access to Resources at Southwestern) program for students is a research program where students are paired with a mentor that helps them as they conduct research. With the help of the mentor, the students select a topic and research...
From making objects soar with catapults to raising flags with marbles, the physics programs at Jesuit have some pretty cool projects, and this year, for the first time ever, the AP Physics classes are trying a new kind of project, a mock trial. Students have been assigned roles such as jury, judge, plaintiff, and defendant, and over the...
Does the engineering flowchart fascinate you? Do you like to play with WD-40 or build different projects that utilize the principles of math and science? If so, the Jesuit Engineering Society wants you to join now.
On April 9th, the Jesuit Engineering Society (JES) hosted a research booth at the Environmental Education Initiative (EEI) at Fair Park in Dallas with hopes...
It was just a normal day for the students of “Forensics: Field Techniques,” about a week before mid-terms, when all of a sudden their teacher, Ms. Page, began coughing intensely in the middle of class. The students did not react much to the coughs, but abruptly Ms. Page rushed to the trashcan, where she then vomited and seemingly passed...
