Welcome to Napa Valley College!

It is my great honor to serve as the Superintendent/President for Napa Valley College. I'm looking forward to collaborating with all of you as we build on Napa Valley College's many strengths, develop a shared vision for the future, and move forward with confidence and purpose. 
 
Student success is our shared purpose. Napa Valley College opens doors for students whose aspirations have too often been limited by systemic barriers or unequal access to opportunity. Napa Valley College鈥檚 faculty and staff are here to support every student on their unique path. Whether your goal is to earn a certificate or degree, transfer to a university, or prepare for a meaningful career, Napa Valley College is here to help you achieve your goals.  
 
Community colleges are engines of opportunity, equity, and economic mobility. Our institutions are among the most important vehicles of social change in our society. Through education, we interrupt multigenerational cycles of poverty and disrupt systemic inequities. Everything we do contributes to the economic and social vibrancy of our community. 
 
On behalf of our community-elected Board of Trustees, our distinguished faculty of innovative teachers and administrators, dedicated and creative staff and diverse student body, I invite you to discover Napa Valley College. Choose your path, find your future! 
 
Sincerely, 
Dr. Gayle Pitman 
Superintendent/President
