( APAC)- Aviation Parents Advisory Committees mission is to make students potential a reality by providing support between our students, teachers , parents and the community, allowing them to see the different fields that they can go into after graduation and strive to reach higher goals.

Skills USA students participate in a multitude of challenges to compete with all the area schools. Some of our students volunteer at BINGO for community knights. We have students that volunteer at schools tutoring and reading to students.

All the students who do get to go on the field trip will share what they experienced with there family and friends showing their excitement will spark others to have an interest to attend the Aviation Academy and follow some of the same pathways that can lead to exciting careers and help keep the programs growing for our future. Pictures and quotes from the students will also be on the Academy's Facebook page. NASA will also be using this learning field trip to help educate other schools and students about the programs they offer, thru pictures and comments from the students that go now.

Nothing has been done like this. We are certain that the experience the students get will get them spreading the word about the programs that the Aviation Academy offer!

With the Aviation Academy offering some pathways that are only available here and offering such an extraordinary field trip, is that it will keep current students interested in striving to do more to reach heights they thought were impossible. In doing this we hope this will spread to all middle schools and get younger students from ALL backgrounds to see that anything is possible!

The trip to Kennedy Space Center will be a group of 10 HUNCH (High school students United with NASA to Create Hardware) and 4 chaperones that will fly down to Orlando, stay in a hotel and use rental vans to travel to the Space center daily. This will be organized and executed by Christine Hagen and Neil Witherespoon. The trip will give insight to behind the scenes daily workings on the International Space station and how the lockers that our students have made are used and how the work the students do is helpful.

The opportunity that a program like yours allows is for our students to believe that there are people that are willing to believe in their education and their futures. Some of our students have never had that before. The students are pleased to have the opportunity to show you that we do care about our community and what is possible with some hard work, good morals and a purpose to believe. All of our students Strive to be the Best they can Be, regardless of the situations they may have in their personal lives.
