The Class of 2014 Wraps Up Senior Week

The Class of 2014 elected to have the Senior Photo taken on the front steps facing Carrollton Avenue.
The Class of 2014 closed the book on Senior Week on Friday, May 2 with a busy day of fun activities.
Following their formal dismissal from their final Morning Assembly as students, seniors made their way to the school’s front steps on Carrollton Avenue to take their senior picture — a photo these soon-to-be alumni will treasure for years to come.
The group then moved into the Auditorium to launch their Senior Day activities. The main attraction was the Senior Showcase, a chance for Blue Jays to share their talents — and a few laughs — with their classmates. This special assembly put on by seniors, for seniors, featured musical performances, dances, jokes, and tributes to the Class of 2014.
The class braked for a mid-morning snack of donuts and returned to the Auditorium to watch a slideshow filled with photos and memories from the Class of 2014’s time at Jesuit.
Afterwards, seniors boarded several school buses and headed downtown to the Bienville Club Lounge of the Mercedes-Benz Superdome where the 260 members of the Class of 2014 were honored at the Commencement Luncheon. The event recognized the senior class and officially welcomed them into the Jesuit Alumni Association.
Before the earnestness of exams begins next week, the almost-graduates will enjoy their Senior Prom tonight at Generations Hall.
