Maximize Curricular Connections
Why Skydive Perris?
Skydive Perris is not only one of the largest, busiest and most respected skydiving dropzones in the world, but we’re also one of only a handful with an on-site wind tunnel! This means we have the unique ability to extend the learning opportunity with meaningful, value-added aviation and flight-themed experiences.
We go the extra mile because we want your students’ experience with us to be worth all of the effort and resources that go into executing a field trip. We recognize field trip funding is limited and time away from the classroom is precious.

Hands-On, Minds On
How It Works
A field trip to Skydive Perris is multifaceted. Students explore STEM concepts by participating in hands-on activities at our on-site wind tunnel and dropzone, located just across the parking lot.

Tips For A Successful Field Trip

Attire
Please have your students wear lace-up shoes with flat soles. We operate a fresh-air wind tunnel and will spend time outside; students should dress for the weather.

Discounted lunch options are available when ordered in advance; drinks are provided. Students can also bring bagged lunch from home or school.

Waiver
Ahead of flying in the skydiving simulator, students must have a waiver on file signed by their parent/guardian. Students without a waiver on file cannot enter the flight chamber.
