GENEVA, N.Y. — The Marion S. Whelan School of Practical Nursing (MSWSPN) celebrated its 87th graduating class on June 23 in the auditorium at Geneva High School.

The ceremony was also lived streamed on fingerlakes1.com so that family members, friends, and others could share the day with the graduates.

The class of nine students is now eligible to take their licensed practical nurse (or LPN) exam. The graduates are: Priti Bhatia (Lodi), Meghan Cole (Waterloo), Katherine Johnson (Fairport), Stephanie Johnson (Canandaigua), Aneesah Lattimore (Geneva), Shania Meyer (Sodus), Tina Prasai (Syracuse), Keith Rizzo (Shortsville), and Marisa Smith (Penn Yan).

Ardelle Bigos, Finger Lakes Health’s chief nursing officer, welcomed students and families to the commencement and Dr. Jose Acevedo, president and CEO of Finger Lakes Health, presented diplomas to the graduating students. Shania Meyer delivered the class address.

The Marion S. Whelan School of Practical Nursing, part of Finger Lakes Health, is one of only three hospital-based nursing programs in New York state and was founded in 1956. Since that time, it has graduated more than 1,800 nurses.
