We understand how this transitionary period between high school and college is exhilarating, exciting, and concerning all at the same time. Flight School provides students more time to make new friends, settle in and learn the mission and core values of 精东影业, and of course, explore the marvelous attractions of the world-renowned city of San Antonio!
