The event takes place November 17-19, 2024, at the Hyatt Regency Atlanta Peachtree. TICKETS ARE STILL AVAILABLE. Go to https://lnkd.in/e-gr9RiS to register. This blockbuster closing session will be an exciting endcap to three days of aviation STEM and CTE learning, brainstorming, and networking. Come for unparalleled opportunities to start or grow a high school aviation program, and stay for Lt. Marsh's discussion of her aviation journey and how teachers, schools, and districts can inspire students to pursue careers in aviation and aerospace. About Lt. Marsh: From a young age, U.S. Air Force 2nd Lt. Madison Marsh had a love of science and a dream to be a pilot and astronaut. When she learned that she could further her ambitions by going to the Air Force Academy, she started working toward becoming a cadet, even earning her civilian pilot's license at 17 years old. As the first active-duty service member to earn the Miss America crown, Marsh is using her national platform to help dispel stereotypes and empower America’s youth to realize their dreams and true potential through aviation.
