Tuesday night during the elimination game at the American Legion
Southeast Tournament at Maestri Field. Retif Oil would hold on to defeat
Valero St. Charles, 5-4. Starting pitcher Jordan Rittiner earned his third
win this season, and Stephen Lukinovich picked up his first save in relief. Offensively, short stop Ethan Oddo hit a solo homerun; and
second baseman Cory Guidry, left fielder Joe Palmer,
and right fielder Evan Schiavi all went two for four.

Jesuit Wants Your Memories for a Book that Will Chronicle the History of JHS


A Blue Jay silhouetted against a window gazes reflectively at the scene below in the Traditions Courtyard.

 

Ronald J. “Ron” Drez ’58, a noted author, lecturer, and historian, has agreed to take the lead role in writing a book about the history of Jesuit High School, beginning with its formation by the Jesuits in 1847 and continuing through post-Katrina times. Jesuit High School will publish the book.

 

As part of the wide-ranging research, Drez is encouraging all Blue Jays and their families to contribute something towards Jesuit’s historical archives which will serve as the foundation for much of the book. 

 

“Jesuit needs you to pick your brain and submit your significant memories – written or oral -- to this archive,” says Drez, adding that this initial call for memoirs applies to alumni and parents of alumni, current students and their parents, and current and former faculty and staff members.”

Read the rest of the story that contains more information about this project, including guidelines for submission of your memoir:

Clarion Herald Reflects on Jesuit's Rich Athletic Tradition


Jesuits State and District Trophies
from the past five years are on display
at the entrance to the Resource Center.

In his column, Clarion Herald
Sports Editor Ron Brocato considers Jesuits numerous athletic
accomplishments over the years.

Brocato concludes that creating
a Jesuit Athletic Hall of Fame would be
a difficult task; however, he does hint
to a potential starting point.

Memorial Service Planned for John McCullough, Longtime Spanish Teacher at Jesuit High School


The Jesuit community mourns the death of long-time Spanish teacher John McCullough. John passed away suddenly in his sleep on Friday, the 4th of July. He was 61-years-old.


Mr. John McCullough
1947-2008

For 33 years, John served in Jesuit’s modern foreign language department teaching Spanish to freshmen and juniors.

“John’s classroom not only focused on the study of language but also served as an opportunity for his students to experience and to appreciate the richness of other cultures,” said Jesuit principal Mike Giambelluca.

To that end, John also served as moderator of the Asian Club, a student organization dedicated to the discovery of language, traditions, and foods of some 50 Asian countries. He was also a past moderator of the Spanish Club and the Coin & Stamp Club.

 

Jesuit High School will miss John’s expertise and dedication to his students and to the community.

A memorial service for John will be held in the Chapel of the North American Martyrs on Saturday, August 2nd at 2 PM.
