NN superintendent named to Virginia Apprenticeship Council

(January 31, 2011) - NNPS Superintendent Ashby Kilgore has been named to the Virginia Apprenticeship Council by Gov. Bob McDonnell. Under the auspices of the Virginia Department of Labor and Industry, the council establishes standards for apprentice agreements. The 11-member panel meets several times a year in different locations in the state. According to council bylaws, members serve three-year terms.

As superintendent, Kilgore has overseen creation of Career Pathways, a comprehensive program that prepares students for college, career, and citizenship. The K-12 program offers a dozen tracks and emphasizes job readiness skills. In addition to exposing students to a wealth of career opportunities and helping them create portfolios, many NNPS students participate in job internships.
