Wings Aerospace Exploration Parent / Family Info Night
Full STEAM Ahead – Launch Your Students’ Aerospace Journey!
Join us to learn about both Wings Aerospace Exploration (WAE) opportunities for students in grades 6–12 from the team at Wings Over the Rockies®. During this session, you’ll hear a program overview, meet our educators and instructors, learn from current and former student experiences, and get your questions answered.
This meeting will take place at the Air & Space Museum (7711 East Academy Blvd, Denver, CO 80230)
Discover how WAE students have the opportunity to explore the wonders of flight, engage with industry professionals, and gain valuable skills for future careers in aerospace. The program includes building and operating RC airplanes, drones, and robotics, as well as coding, rocketry, and lots of other aviation and space-related subjects.
WAE programs complement but do not take the place of an accredited educational institution.
