Pre-Flight, founded in 2009, is an academic adventure based on principals of flight bringing S.T.E.M. to life with excitement to youths (gr 6-12). Individual competencies are challenged, team capacities are discovered, and youths build on critical thinking skills towards investigating hypotheses for flight, life and encouraging a life-time of achievements. Youths are engaged in safe but tangible virtual & simulated experiences which are translated into mental & physical performance adaptations in and beyond their classrooms, including skies, land and seas.
