New Community Career & Technical Institute (NCCTI) celebrated graduation on June 30 at Monsignor William J. Linder Plaza, 233 West Market St., Newark. Graduates from the past several years were invited to attend the celebration since COVID-19 prevented the school from holding large gatherings.

Graduates’ families and friends came together to celebrate their accomplishments. New Community Board Chairman Dr. A. Zachary Yamba, New Community CEO Simone Gagneron and NCCTI Director Dr. Sylvia McCray all spoke to the graduates congratulating them on the completion of their programs and looking forward to their future careers in their field of study.
