BOB HOOVER ACADEMY

Misión

USING THE POWER OF FLIGHT TO CHANGE LIVES: THE BOB HOOVER ACADEMY CREATES OPPORTUNITIES THAT INSPIRE AT-RISK AND UNDERSERVED TEENS TO GET ENGAGED IN STEAM (SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, ARTS & MATHEMATICS) EDUCATION AND TO TAKE FLIGHT IN AVIATION. AVIATION IS A METAPHOR FOR THE DEEPER MISSION, TO CAPTURE STUDENTS' MINDS, FOCUS THEIR ENERGIES AND TO CULTIVATE SUCCESS IN THE CLASSROOM AND IN LIFE. EACH STUDENT EARNS ADMISSION INTO OUR FLIGHT TRAINING PROGRAM BY EXCELLING IN OUR GROUND TRAINING CURRICULUM. FROM THERE, THE ULTIMATE TRANSFORMATIVE EXPERIENCE IS TO LEAVE THE INSTRUCTOR ON THE GROUND, TAKE AN AIRPLANE INTO THEIR OWN HANDS AND FLY SOLO. STUDENTS BECOME ACCOUNTABLE TO THEMSELVES AND THEIR TEAMMATES, CHALLENGING THEMSELVES IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE IN AN ENDEAVOR THAT CAN HAVE A MEASURABLE IMPACT ON THEIR FUTURE; ULTIMATELY, THEY DEVELOP THE SKILLS AND CONFIDENCE TO LAUNCH THEMSELVES OUT OF THEIR CURRENT ORBIT TOWARDS A COURSE AS A DYNAMIC AND CONTRIBUTING MEMBER OF SOCIETY.
