About
Wright Flight motivational programs were given through the use of Wright Flight history of aviation materials and lesson plans to over 780 youngsters in the Southern Arizona region from over 45 schools. We provide the program to private and public schools. Most of the schools involved were elementary school programs administrated by paid staff, volunteers and teachers who were trained by Wright Flight members. Over 590 youngsters graduated from the program and received aviation incentive flights and t-shirts, photographs and 'first flight certificates'. Teachers reported increased attendance and better classroom discipline and better grades for those students in the Wright Flight program.
