New College Institute

"A visit Friday to New College Institute by Gov. Glenn Youngkin and two pieces of legislation are addressing NCI’s path forward..." It was an absolute honor to host Gov. Glenn Youngkin and Secretary of Education Aimee Guidera for a thorough tour of NCI to meet many of our partners and explore our workforce training, K-12, university, and community programming. Following the tour, the Governor sat down with select NCI staff and board members to discuss a business plan under development - providing key insight and encouragement on the path forward. Thank you to Senator Bill Stanley (board chair), Delegate Eric Phillips, Richard Hall (vice chair), Martinsville Mayor LC Jones and Vice Mayor Aaron Rawls , Martinsville City Public Schools Dr. Zeb Talley, and Henry County Public Schools Amy Blake-Lewis, Ed.D.
