EHS Aviation

Edgwood High School Aviators

Forty-five Edgewood High School Juniors and Seniors moved their classroom to DCRA on September 8th for the morning.  These future jet setters learned the fundamentals of airport management, FAA tower operations, facility operations and coordination.  The EHS aviation curriculum combines practical lessons in math, science, critical thinking, spatial knowledge and leadership skills with dashes of history, art, aesthetics and vocational guidance. The two semester program covers all course work of Pilot Ground School and students learn the characteristics of a good pilot, including vision, perseverance, imagination, dedication, precision, honesty, confidence and communication.  www.edgewoodhs.org

Chili

Fall Back Into Fall...With Chili

Chili is a favorite go-to as the temperature starts to drop and one of the best kept secrets at Quiznos.  Slow-cooked chili with beef, onions and a garden variety of vegetables, this hearty core-warming comfort food is a perfect grab-and-go lunch or dinner treat.  The combination of savory and spicy flavors always hits the spot - especially when topped with fresh grated cheese and diced onions. www.quiznos.com
