Hi! My name is Hilary Richards and I’ve been a RN for over 16 years. I’m married and have one son, Matt, who attends Penn State University. I have a B.S. in Business Management from East Stroudsburg University and I obtained my nursing diploma from St. Luke’s School of Nursing several years later. My bachelor's degree came from Slippery Rock University and I'm currently working on obtaining my master's degree from there as well. I was employed in a local Labor & Delivery Unit for 9 years before becoming the school nurse at CIT and then, ultimately, Pen Argyl High School. I come from a long line of Slaters, as I hail from Bangor. However, kelly green has grown on me tremendously!
In my spare time, I enjoy traveling, reading, hunting for bargains, politics and spending time with family and friends. I am a huge Philadelphia sports fan and love watching the Eagles, Phillies, 76’ers, and Flyers win! Penn State football also ranks right up there. I truly love being a nurse. Interacting with and caring for others brings me a great deal of joy.
Favorite Thing About PAAHS
My favorite things about working at Pen Argyl High School are the students and the staff. I thoroughly enjoy this age group. Connecting with your young adults while attending to their needs on a daily basis provides me with an enormous amount of fulfillment. I also feel very blessed to work one of the best academic teams in the Lehigh Valley!
