As a part of the Global Studies & Global Studies Honors course, all 7th graders have the opportunity to visit one of the country’s largest collections of aircraft, spanning the entire 20th century.
This outstanding museum includes hangars devoted to WWII in the European and Pacific theaters, another hangar dedicated to the development of spaceflight technology, as well as a general hangar focusing on the development of aircraft throughout the 20th century. Outdoors, an airplane yard with over 150 planes, some military, others commercial, gives students a wider perspective on the purpose and evolution of flight technology over time. The students’ favorite feature of this museum is that all aircraft are accessible; students are able to walk up close to each aircraft and explore for themselves many features of each plane.
Students will meet in Horizon’s West Courtyard at 7:00 AM for an immediate departure. We will return to Horizon at 2:45 PM.
All 7th graders will bring home a detailed permission slip, which must be returned, along with payment by Wednesday, March 30th.
The cost per student is $28 and includes transportation and admission.
Students must bring their own sack lunch.
