Students always look forward to field trips. Memories with friends on the bus ride and opportunities to experience an educational adventure outside of the typical classroom-filled day fills students with excitement. In the weeks and days prior, there\u2019s a build-up of energy in the classroom as conversations filter in about a day away from school and signed permission slips are returned. But if the field trip itself doesn\u2019t end up meeting expectations, students easily become bored.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Skydive Perris, we know that. Everybody here has gone through school and taken part in field trips that are remembered for years and the ones forgotten within a month. Our facilities provide the potential for a thrilling skydiving<\/span> adventure for students. Have they never skydived before? Never learned the proper form to maintain balance inside a wind tunnel? That\u2019s not a problem. We\u2019ve worked hard to put together a program that\u2019ll take students from preschool to university on a physics thrill ride that\u2019ll have them running for their graphing calculators.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Book your school\u2019s skydiving experience today and become a part of the emerging STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) community. From learning the numbers and principles behind skydiving to partaking in our indoor wind tunnel, students  \u2014 whether they\u2019re preschoolers or university students, or somewhere in between \u2014 will be a part of a day they\u2019ll remember for years.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who\u2019s this indoor skydiving experience for?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our instructors at Skydive Perris are able to train children as young as three to fly in our Southern California indoor skydiving wind tunnel. That means there\u2019s no student left behind. While those nine-plus tend to get the most out of the educational material, simply because of their ability to comprehend and retain the calculations and principles \u2014  it\u2019s never too early to inspire a kid with an interactive STEM experience.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What will a student walk away knowing more about?\"\"<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

During their day at Skydive Perris, students will receive an education based on the principles of STEM: how our indoor wind tunnel works and allows them to fly, how their bodies in flight are affected by the forces of lift, drag and resistance, and how the principles of STEM pertain to parachutes and aviation.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Students will also have the opportunity to participate in math and physics experiments inside and outside the tunnel, and everyone will take part in two one-minute flight sessions priced at our super-low educational rate designed for your budget.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flying isn\u2019t all, though. Students will also take part in an interactive parachute packing demonstration before heading over to the dropzone landing area and watching skydivers engage their parachutes in real-time. From there, they\u2019ll head over to our shiny collection of historic airplanes, getting a personalized tour of a World War I Fokker Triplane, a World War II DC-3 airplane, and planes used for skydiving scenes in movies military training. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When everyone piles back on the bus at the end of the day, students will have a personalized Flight Certificate, unforgettable memories and a new appreciation of STEM.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
