The Roundup is the Jesuit Dallas Student Voice and Newspaper since 1942. Learn about us.

Will Aberger '17 sits eagerly in the Terry Center, waiting to celebrate the first school Mass of 2016.  Surrounded by Jesuit students, he looks down the center aisle to see Fr. Wally Sidney, S.J. lead the procession to the altar, followed by Mr. Lugo and Fr. Liese.  The Jesuit faculty, students, and friends in attendance celebrated the first Friday of...
This past Wednesday, September 2, The Roundup held the first news conference with Mr. Garrison and Mrs. Williams for the new school year. This one was especially unique as new Assistant Principal Michelle Williams was interviewed as well. In this long conference, Garrison and Williams spoke much about the upcoming school year, Jesuit in the public eye, and much...
Every Wednesday morning, Jesuit holds prayer services in which students get to further their education, faith, and ability to understand the situations that surround them. This past week's prayer service was all about inter-religious prayer, and how to understand others who aren't Catholics, and their beliefs. I was honored to interview the seniors who spoke at it.

The music at this...
Hundreds of students proudly adorning bright red ties fidget in their seats, waiting in angst for the mass to begin. Suddenly, the students quiet down at once, a phenomenon in and of itself, as the procession begins, marking the commencement of the extremely important mass. This was the scene on Friday, September 2nd, as the school year, like many preceding...
The date was March 11, 2020, just another regular Jesuit Wednesday. As students sit quietly in their 8th-period class, Dr. Dion comes on the intercom, stopping all activity in the room. "Is what I think going to happen actually going to happen? Are the rumors true?" He announces a potential COVID-19 case with ties to Jesuit Dallas. As a result, the...
The new Jesuit trainer Greg Meek will work alongside Coach Lefebvre and Coach Sanchez up in the dell. He will help with all sports that lift in the Dell (football, baseball, basketball, etc.) and with Freshman experience lift. Throughout my interview, I gathered that Coach Meek would make an impact even when limited to a semester here at Jesuit. Coach...
