My Project

The drone industry is expanding rapidly and this new field will need drone pilots, coders, and designers. Drone programs in schools help students explore their interest and curiosity in 21st-century technology. Drone programs challenge students to ask questions and act on their own curiosity and drive to learn about the technology. Currently, our aeronautics course has a class set of 30 Tello drones. Many of the students in the school have mastered flying these basic drones.

These drones will allow our school to improve our drone program by upgrading our aging Tello drones and will give our students a hands-on approach to learning aerodynamics, physics, elements of flight, and new skills for 21st-century jobs.

A drone program will stir student interest in new technologies and provide them with new skills and opportunities in the future.
