St. Mary's Nursing School Turns 100
Description
St. Mary’s School of Nursing in Huntington, West Virginia, celebrates its 100th anniversary — the oldest nursing program in the state — having graduated over 5,100 nurses since its founding in 1926 by the Pallottine Missionary Sisters. Still thriving today, it admits 90-91 students twice yearly, with most staying local to serve critical healthcare roles. Alumni, students, and faculty gathered to honor the legacy, with alum and leader Dr. Joey Trader reflecting on the humble yet powerful journey ahead. The mayor even issued a proclamation designating May 27, 2026, as St. Mary’s School of Nursing Day — a testament to a century of enduring impact and community service.
