Sister Jerome Corcoran celebrated her 100th birthday on Thursday.
Sister Jerome spent most of her life educating children. She taught six years in elementary school and six years at Ursuline High School.
In 1976 she founded Millcreek Children's Center, which she directed for 36 years. Then in 1998 she helped found the Youngstown Community School. Her goal was to make sure all deserving children were literate.
