Customer Testimonials:
Ruth Patrick, March 2022:
"Just beginning my adventure with Drone Legends. I am impressed with the availability of the staff, the professional development, and continued support through the Drone Legends curriculum."
Sue Isbel, July 2022:
"For the first time ever we have been able to offer drones to the girls on our reservation. It is a very self-guided program, and requires minimal adult guidance once the students have been taught the basics. The youth have amazed me with the dedication and commitment they have brought to the program. I anticipate improved school attendance and higher testing scores as students continue with the program. The support I have felt as we have started with this program is amazing. Thank you."
Mark Kaercher, June 2022:
"Drone Legends is a fantastic community to be a part of if you fly drones with your students. Scott and his team are passionate about drones and the role they play in helping students explore a STEM-based set of missions.
The mission guides are so well written and keep students engaged when working on their missions. The support materials are also a lot of fun to incorporate into the lessons.
In addition to using Drone Legends in my daily lessons, I am also using DL in a summer engagement camp and an after school club. I could not be happier with the support I've received from Scott.
If you are thinking about brining drones in your school, I highly recommend using Drone Legends!"
