This week, we proudly celebrated one of the many time-honored traditions at SON — the Promotion Ceremony, better known as the Lamping Ceremony. ✨

This semester, 105 future nurses received their lamps, symbolizing the halfway point in their journey toward becoming Registered Nurses.

Of those students, 81 were recognized with Honors for outstanding achievement in their first, second, or both semesters of nursing school — an incredible accomplishment.🏆

Please join us in congratulating these dedicated students and wishing them continued success as they begin their Specialties. We are so proud of you! 👏🩺

SON Elves Night and Gale had a blast watching over the staff while the students were away on break—and of course, couldn’t resist causing a little mischief along the way. From playful surprises to festive fun, the elves definitely kept spirits bright this season!

🎁 50 children were adopted for Christmas through the Hope Clinic
👕 A clothing and hygiene donation will be made to Crisis Advocacy through the Crime Victims Council

Dear St. Luke’s School of Nursing Faculty, Staff, and Students,

Greetings from the North Pole! We’re Night and Gale, your two new Elves on the Shelf assigned to watch over all the wonderful work happening across your building this season.

You might spot us perched on shelves, tucked into corners, or keeping a cheerful eye on your classrooms, offices, and hallways. Santa sent us to see the learning, teamwork, compassion, and holiday spirit that make this place so special.

So keep spreading kindness, working hard, and enjoying the season—and don’t forget to look for us as we pop up in new hiding spots each day!

With jingles, cheer, and a little elf magic,
Night & Gale 🎁

Keep an eye out and share a picture of Night & Gale if you spot them around the Trexler Building!
