Aviation High School

A great school for a math and science oriented child. Great kids and challenging curriculum.

I have two children who go to this school and it has been a great experience for both. It's a smaller school so the kids really get to know each other and they all get along well. The staff is very involved for the most part. AHS has a great FIRST Robotics team and Science Olympiad team as well. I feel this school does a great job of preparing the students for college. They learn time management, are challenged by their classes and present to groups (student and adult) all the time. The PE credit is an issue for some kids as they aren't able to complete at school. There are more electives now - my kids haven't had a real problem with that. Students who are in band and sports are still able to participate through other schools in the district. They are building a new AHS school building in the near future that will be quite amazing and one of my kids will be able to enjoy that!

This school is amazing for anyone who wishes to recieve a outstanding education, i love it because everyone at this school (even teachers) as a want, a need to learn. the staff at AHS is some of the finest men and women i have ever met; amone the great teachers is Dr. Edgerton who is usually 3 to four hours early to school so that students can go to him for any help they need, Dr. Katims who is the one teacher that made me want to be in a english class, if you want help he is always there for you, and Mrs. Cook is a great english teacher as well, she is extremely demanding but if you are in your class it would be impossible not to learn, this school is a great place to go and i recomend it for anyone who has a love for learning.

Extraordinarily talented staff and amazing student body. I feel that any student who wants a great education and wants the best preperation for college should go here.We have some extracurricular issues but school buses provide easy transportation to neighboring highschools so you can join sports teams there. I think the only student that would complain about being in this school is one who doesn't try. At this school, you are forced to try and the teachers will make sure that you succeed if you put some effort into it and that's all they ask of you. If you don't do that, then this is not the place to be.

This school is a great school, but is still working out some of the 'new school' bugs that affect every new school.

My kids used to go to private school. After my daughter graduated from middle school, we had a hard time trying to find the right high school for her. A good private high school is very expensive and far from home. We feel that we are so lucky to have learned about Aviation High School at the last minute; it was recommend by some parents. I have three favortie teachers: Mrs. Wilson, who is always there early, one hour before school starts for kids who have any questions about math. Mrs. Wombold, is very strict but it's good for them to ready their college. Dr. Katims is always their for kids who are eager to learn. I am very happy with the school and the teachers. I would recommended Aviation HS to anyone that Iknow.

the school is aweeesome!! NUFF SAID! no, i'm joking. i will give you sa little insight. Since i am a freshWOMAN at this wonderfull school, there are many things that i can say. First off, i feel safe within the enviroment and i can finally just focus on my work instead of worrying about whats going to happen the next second. The dress code can make some kids ify about the school but you accually dont feel like you stand out. You can still add your flavor but there are limits, not just to make the school look better but it also makes you look and feel better. The classes are fun n yet educational. With hands on learnging you can accually see how things work right in front of you! =] this school can get me to where i want to be and u, YOU reading this can too!!

As a recent graduate of AHS (class of 2008!) and now college freshman, I can never thank AHS enough for the quality education they provided to me. While it sometimes was a challenge, in the end it made me a better student and better person. The staff are always there for the students and help whenever they are able to. I feel very honored to call myself an Aviation High School Alumni.

I am now a sophomore at this amazing school, and I love it. There is a lot of work, but it teaches you to manage your time. The teachers are really nice, and willing to help you (or at least most of them are) and everyone is nice to everyone for the most part. I feel like we are all one big happy family, and I feel really safe here. It is difficult to do sports, because they aren't offered here, but I swim for my home school and I play rec league soccer, I just have no 7th period. I know I will have to make this up some other way because I am missing a class for it, but I really love this school. Oh, and I'm not really interested in Aviation too much, and it is still a really good school. :)
