Field Trip to Ellsworth AFB

By Addy and Nichole

The C.E. (career exploration) goes on field trips every once in a while. On Tuesday, December 5, 2023, the 3 classes will visit the Air Force Base (AFB). There will be 3 major spots we get to see, which are where the B-1 bombers are housed, engineering, and the K-9 units. We will be having a lunch break either with our own sack lunch or the provided sack lunch.

Our buses that day will be leaving at 8:30 A.M. and coming back to the school around 2:30 P.M. The students will be able to bring their phones on this field trip, but the privilege is limited to taking pictures.  All students are expected to behave and be respectful to represent our school. Being good at these field trips is key to having fun experiences within this class! The last field trip that our C.E. class went well, and I hope that this field trip goes the same. 

To conclude, this field trip could go one of two ways. We could have another exciting and memorable trip, or the school would not be proud of our student’s actions. We are hoping that the students can use this opportunity to have more field trips in the future. This might be a great experience for people who are interested in these types of future jobs. If any of the students want to become a part of the Air Force Base, they’ll get to see where they might work or live, or what plane they might fly during this trip. This field trip is a perfect way to get young adults connected to the Air Force.
