During a recent government meeting, the spotlight was on an innovative aviation program at Champion High School, highlighted as the \"BEF wow moment\" for August. The program features a state-of-the-art flight simulator, which provides students with immersive experiences in flying aircraft. This initiative, supported by the Bernie Education Foundation, aims to enhance the skills of cadets interested in pursuing aviation careers.

Students Caroline and Sydney introduced the program, emphasizing its role in preparing cadets for flight academy scholarships and other opportunities within the Air Force. The simulator is described as top-of-the-line, offering a realistic flying experience that engages students in the science and mechanics of aviation.

Following the presentation, the meeting transitioned to a public comment segment, where community members were invited to share their thoughts on district education. The board reiterated its commitment to maintaining decorum and encouraged early resolution of concerns at the administrative level. The meeting underscored the importance of community engagement in shaping educational initiatives and addressing public concerns.
