Crompond Students Learn About Drones

Flight School is in session!

Returning for its fourth year, the drone lesson plan started last week at Crompond School with a reading of “T-Bone the Drone.” After learning the rules of drone flying, the eager fourth-grade students in Ms. Byrnes’ class were ready to take to the skies. However, they first needed to create team names and design custom logos for their airlines.

With the help of District tech specialist Ms. Burns, the students took flight on Tuesday.

Drone technology incorporates student collaboration, teamwork, kindness, and empathy — all important aspects of the ESTEAM initiative at Yorktown CSD.
