in Rockingham County, NC Original Grant Partners New/Potential Grant Partners Overview Our proposal was the culmination of work that began months ago. This pathway is one of several we anticipate for Rockingham County Schools (RCS) students in partnership with Rockingham Community College (RCC). We began our project looking for ways to get students into high wage, high demand, and high skill jobs. Our initial discussion took place at RCS with members of business and industry, county government, RCC employees and RCS employees. The talks began with a discussion centered on how to close the skills gap and meet the employee need of business and industry. Even though we made great strides in the first meetings, we never were able to establish a framework to address our challenges and what we felt was the solution to our problem. Two different meetings later, we seemed to discover the magic answer – a pathway in aviation machining. . Why Not Us?
