The Peninsula's Community College
We stand with Heritage
Thomas Nelson Community College, now Virginia Peninsula Community College, stands with the entire Heritage High School family – students, faculty, staff, administrators, parents and the surrounding community – as they cope with the aftermath of the horrific incident that occurred Sept. 20. We remain prayerful that those who were injured will soon recover, our community will heal, and that crime of this nature will never happen again. The College joins the masses across all platforms in denouncing gun violence.
