Nearly 200 bankers participated in the week-long session of the Virginia Bankers School of Bank Management.  The School of Bank Management provides a multidimensional education experience in banking.  Employing lectures from the best of the banking, professional and academic worlds, case studies, home study problems and peer study groups provides a vehicle for each student to experience comprehensive learning.

The year’s week-long session featured instructors who have been a part of the school for many years and a new faculty member, Michelle Austin from Bank of Botetourt, who taught Bank Financial Management I in the first year class.

Faircloth Family Award of Excellence

The seventh annual Faircloth Family Award of Excellence was awarded to Liz Ray of Burke & Herbert Bank.  This award recognizes a member of the third-year class who exhibits three attributes which Bank School instructor Mark Faircloth and his family deeply value – continuous learning, passionate giving and purposeful living. 

We also celebrated Mark Faircloth’s retirement from Bank School in 2022 after 25 years. During Friday’s graduation, all six of the Faircloth Family Award of Excellence past recipients joined Mark and his family on stage to share a few words about what Mark and receiving the award meant to them.
