PROGRAMS OF DISTINCTION
 “BRIDGE” PROGRAM—In an effort to improve student transition from high schools
to colleges and universities, area superintendents, board members, administrators,
principals, and other educational leaders created a program known as “Bridge.”
This program utilizes senior advisory teachers to instruct students on how to
navigate the college’s financial aid, placement, enrollment, and registration
processes.
 HIGH CALIBER NURSING PROGRAM—Consistently posts high retention rates
(88%), graduated 758 students over the last five years, and placement rates on the
National Council Licensure Examination-Registered Nursing (NCLEX-RN) have
consistently been above 85%.
 MODEL UNITED NATIONS—A competitive exercise that gives our students the
opportunity to represent countries through the world in problem-solving exercises.
For the last five years, VVCC students have been awarded the two top awards that
a delegation can receive at the annual conference in New York city.
 PERFORMING ARTS CENTER—Having completed a 20,563 square foot addition
to the Performing Arts Center, this venue continues to represent the cultural center
