To say we are excited is an understatement. I wasn't sure we were going to make our construction deadlines at one point this fall. It looks like we're going to make it now.

We expect 250 students to be using this facility when it opens. That number is expected to climb steadily over the next 20 years.

Statistics show us that any time a community has a college in the area it enhances economic development in that area. Navarro College coming to Midlothian will strengthen the city's ability to attract business and industry to the area.

I have a vase with the first scoop of dirt under my desk. This is a dream come true for me and I know Navarro College will benefit this community for years to come.
