GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOTV) - Located on the grounds of the Gerald R. Ford International Airport, West Michigan Aviation Academy is one of only a few aviation schools in the nation. This tuition free charter high school is a chance for students to stand out, be bold and graduate math-sharp and science savvy.

While the school has a strong aviation focus, it's not just for aspiring pilots. The school is for anyone looking for a new, challenging, rewarding way to learn. West Michigan Aviation Academy offers students three tracks to choose from: Aviation Flight, Aviation Business Administration and Aviation Mechanics. The skills learned in these tracks can be applied to various fields after high school, both in aviation and otherwise.

Students graduate from West Michigan Aviation Academy having completed a challenging scholastic career, and will be way beyond other high school students in aviation knowledge, experience, and general education.
