Aviation Academy is an innovative Capstone experience designed to ignite students’ passion for aviation and allow them to explore the variety of careers in one of the most exciting and dynamic industries in the world. Combining classroom instruction, hands-on learning, and practical exposure, the program offers Seniors a unique opportunity to be in a hangar-turned-classroom at the Chicago Executive Airport to explore the fundamentals of aviation.

Aviation Academy is more than just a high school program - it’s a pathway to advanced education and career readiness through its partnership with Lewis University, an institution known for its aviation programs. This dual credit collaboration allows students to earn both high school and college credits simultaneously.
