The graduates were honored during a pinning ceremony held at First Baptist Church of Parsons on May 29, 2025. The ceremony was attended by proud family members and friends who gathered to celebrate the accomplishments of the class.  The program included a heartfelt address from Practical Nursing student Karlee Burkhead, who shared personal reflections on the journey through nursing school and the strong bonds formed among classmates. 

The following students graduated from the Practical Nursing program:  Brooke Bingham, Honors, Scotts Hill; Karlee Burkhead, Lexington; Kaile Cossey, Honors, Olive Hill, Briana Frady, Honors, Michie, Cristin Henley, Honors, Parsons; Dina Lindsey, Honors, Parsons; Lesley Powers, Honors, Lexington; Delanie Townsend, Camden. 

The Practical Nursing program combines classroom instruction with hands-on clinical experience, preparing students to sit for the NCLEX-PN exam and become Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs).
