The goal of the Aviation/Aerospace program at South Mountain High School is for all students to gain the knowledge, skills and confidence that will lead them down a career path in the Aerospace industry.

Students enrolling in the Aviation/Aerospace program will gain exposure to a variety of careers in the field. They will learn about the repair and maintenance of aircraft in Aircraft Maintenance Technology. In Air Traffic Control, students will learn how to control traffic from both a tower and radar facility. In Ground and Flight School they will work toward earning their FAA private pilot certificate in a single engine aircraft.
