Leland Jackson, Class of 2011
A recent graduate of Jesuit High School, Leland has always showed an interest in flight, airplanes and the space program. While at GSS, Leland was able to watch the Space Shuttle flight in one of the classrooms. It made tremendous impression on his and it came as no surprise that he decided to pursue his dreams by enrolling Louisiana Tech's aviation program. To prepare for his major, Leland took flight lessons locally and flies regularly in a Cessna 172 training plane (photographed here). His training will be completed by his senior year at Louisiana Tech resulting in him receiving his commercial pilot's license. Upon graduation, Leland will sign on with a regional airline company flying all over the country. The GSS family, hopes for Leland every good blessing and well wishes with his training and education. |

Andrew Joseph, GSS Class of 2008
Andrew graduated from Jesuit High School in 2013 with Honors and currently attends Cornell College in Iowa, where he is balancing his studies with an active extracurricular life including playing as defensive end on the football team, as well as member of a fraternity. GSS is honored to highlight Andrew and his accomplishments, on and off the field.
Majoring in Biology, Andrew intends to eventually go to medical school and become a doctor. With a current GPA of 3.2, he is certainly on his way to achieving that goal. When he is not hitting the books, Andrew spends a good portion of his day getting ready for football season by working out. In 2013, his first season wearing a Cornell Rams jersey, Andrew led the team in tackles and posted a personal best 13 tackles, 2.5 stops, and half a sack in one game alone. On top of his academic and athletic pursuits, Andrew is also an active member of Beta Omicron, a football fraternity. With such a “full plate”, you would think Andrew is burned out; he is anything but.
In his own words: “I’m doing fine. School is going really well right now.” As for sleep? “I get a little in, every now and then.”
To Andrew (and his family), we say, “Congratulations on your success! We are so very proud of you.”
