Each year, every school in the Jesuit Schools Network awards a senior who most represents the embodiment of a graduate at graduation. Awardees exemplify the Jesuit ideals of being open to growth, intellectually excellent, religious, loving and committed to justice.

Andrew Blount ‘25 was announced as this year’s JSN Awardee at the 2025 graduation ceremony. Finalists for the award with Blount included Jack Kwiatt and Luke McCormick. 

His nomination from faculty noted that he became a member of the Civil Air Patrol as soon as he was old enough to join, served as captain of the MUHS baseball team and that he "strives for more than the letter grade, seeking genuine intellectual growth and understanding." 

"Perhaps his best quality is his kindness, warmth and commitment to both his family and friends," his nomination stated. "If you have had the pleasure of engaging with Andrew, you know he is always extremely polite and attentive in such encounters." 

In addition to his JSN award, he was also honored as the outstanding student by the German Honor Society.  

Blount graduated St. Thomas Aquinas Academy in Milwaukee before his four years at MUHS, and will attend U.S. Air Force Academy in the fall.
