ACE stands for Aviation Career Experience. Students learn what life as a commercial pilot is like as well as the requirements and steps for reaching that goal.  Students learn about different college options, what majors to consider, and other possible jobs in the aviation industry. ACE club has exciting field trips, like to the Alaska Airlines 737 full motion simulators and the flight line and hangar at Seattle Tacoma International Airport. 

For students who are members of the NHS. Students participate in and plan NHS events. NHS club is a great way to get more involved with the school and the community, and students gain experience running fundraisers and fulfill community service through active participation in NHS. 

Science Olympiad is an amazingly fun competition in which teams of up to 15 students test their scientific mettle and engineering prowess in 24 different events. From astronomy to experimental design, anatomy to technical writing, constructing Rube Goldberg devices to computer programming, whatever field of study piques your interest, you'll find a home for it in Science Olympiad.

​

RAHS fields five Science Olympiad teams made up of students who are excited and passionate about learning and doing science and engineering.
 

The Speech & Debate team meets after school and participates in competitions throughout the school year. 

The Unmanned Aerial Systems team builds drones and has the opportunity to enter into competition at the state and national level. Here are some of the other benefits of joining this team:

• Obtain flight hours and learn real-world applications for unmanned systems

• Stay up-to-date on the latest technology

• Partner with Purdue University and earn possible credits for the Intro to Unmanned Aerial Systems course

• Join and participate in the Drone club at RAHS

​

Team Turbulence meets three days a week after school for practice and participates in tournaments throughout the fall and spring seasons. 

RAHS Green Energy Team is comprised of a group of young engineers who are eager to bring design, build, test and refine clean, renewable energy technology. From 2015-18, the team designed and built model wind turbines to compete in the National Kid Wind and the Collegiate Wind Challenges.  This year, they have turned their sights to building a solar-powered car from the ground up. Group members specialize in a wide range of disciplines including Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Fabrication, Aerodynamics, Project Management, Financial Administration, and Outreach.

Women in Aviation International (WAI) is a club that empowers women who aspire to go into the aviation industry to follow their dreams. WAI provides a place for women at our school with similar passions to come together and motivate each other. In this club, we focus on helping women exploring different careers in STEM, and we discuss and research different college options and career opportunities. Our executive team works on getting in touch with different guest speakers that can come in and inspire the girls in our club. We are active in the community and are always searching for new volunteer opportunities in order to encourage students at RAHS to become future philanthropists. We also make it our mission to attend different conferences and events surrounding females in the work industry such as Women Fly, Alaska Airlines Aviation day, as well as other Women in Aviation sponsored events. One of our goals this year is to host an RAHS Stem day, a day in which middle school girls are able to recognize that their interests in science, technology, engineering, and math, correlate with a career. Overall, we hope to inspire our fellow women to find their path and follow the dreams.
