Teachers:Wright Flight offers a variety of programs which use aviation as a motivation. Typically, a student enrolled in the program sets an academic or behavioral goal he or she contracts to improve. The contract also stipulates the student must pass the Wright Flight aviation history course in addition to remaining drug and alcohol free Upon successfully completing the contract, students are rewarded with a variety of exciting aviation-related incentives. Depending on the program the student has completed, the rewards vary from a tour of an aviation facility to a “hands-on flight” experience in a light aircraft. All students receive a t-shirt, certificate and photo commemorating their success and graduation from the program. Because of their involvement with Wright Flight, Educators and Parents say:“Due to the Wright Flight program our Honor Roll increased 64% since last year.” “One class averaged a gain of 2.4 grades per student even though their Wright Flight contract specified a one grade increase.” “Our son has made a 180° turn for the better since enrolling in the program. He now expresses confidence and enthusiasm about his future.” “It was amazing to see the look on my daughter’s face after she got out of the plane. I think she kept a part of that enthusiasm in all her schoolwork since the flight.” If you are interested in starting a program at your school, please contact Wright Flight. |
