This year Nerinx Hall High School celebrated the 100th anniversary of its founding by Loretto. The school also celebrated the 212th year of Loretto’s own founding on April 25. The Foundation Day celebration included presentations and discussions on topics that included the history of Loretto and of Nerinx, Earth justice, women in Pakistan and justice for those on the margins. Jennifer Staed, new Loretto co-member and Nerinx Hall teacher, also was recognized.
