Meet the Our Partners








Our aviation curriculum provides students the opportunity to engage in
​
-
multi-disciplinary projects,
-
enroll in dual-credit classes with local universities, and
-
intern with local aviation industry firms.
The bedrock of our classes and/or programs will give students a solid understanding in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math, preparing and inspiring them to pursue careers in the aviation industry.
Along with these practical skills, and of equal importance, is our mission to develop ethical standards that promote responsibility, good citizenship, respect for authority, and solid core values in our students.
