Our Rhame student ambassadors visited the TWA Museum & Hotel at JFK International Airport as the culmination to this year's first-ever World Cultures Group hosted by Rhame staff member Ms. Schutta.

The students have been learning about countries and cultures around the world, while using technology to explore, learn and get inspired.

The sky is the limit for our future pilots, aviation engineers, mechanics, U.N. representatives, linguists and leaders!
