Jesuit comes off a 3-2 finish in the Coppell Tournament against El Paso Chaplain in a 63-40 win.

During an October prayer service, our school president, Mr. Earsing, reflected on how the Profile of the Graduate of Intellectually Competent helps students grow in their faith journey throughout their lives.

These projects mark the continuation of our school’s revitalization and expansion since the completion last year of the David A. Segal Family Aquatic Center and Melsheimer Family Theater. On Sept. 30, 2022, I had the opportunity to conduct an interview with Mr. Alex Soich, Vice President of Finance...
What a game! Last Friday the 16th, your Jesuit Rangers played the Lake Highlands Wildcats in their first district away game of the season.
