My Students

Our Aviation Program is training students is the only Certified Aerospace/Aircraft Assembly training provider at the high school level in the nation. Helping low-income students graduating from our high school receive jobs when they finish the program that will not only improve their lives but the lives of their whole family. The program currently has 160 students from grades 9th through 12th grade. Jobs on the Space Coast of Florida are booming and need the entry-level workers that our program produces. The program has seen a drop in our normal funding because of COVID-19. This program originated in response to input from the Space Coast Aviation industry and the local need for trained personnel to meet current and future expansion of aerospace-type companies in Brevard County, Florida. Students in the Aviation Maintenance Technology Program will gain the foundational knowledge and skills to become entry-level aviation technicians and assemblers. Our certifying organizations are ASTM through NCATT, CertTEC, and SpaceTEC.

My Project

The tablets you are helping the students get will allow them have digital manuals as they work on aircraft. In a historically low economic area, jobs that our graduates received does not just put them to work it gives kids a career and a future. Our graduating high school students who have completed our program are and will be working at L3Harris, Embraer Aircraft, STS AeroMod, Harris and Piper Aircraft. They also go into military aviation careers and attending aviation engineering programs at Florida Institute of Technology (FIT), Eastern Florida State College A&P Program, SpaceTec to work at Kennedy Space Center, University of Central Florida and other colleges across the country.
