Pelham City Schools Superintendent Dr. Keri Johnson and Pelham High School Principal Sabrina Tutchtone recently participated in an immersive learning experience with the 117th Air Refueling Wing at Sumpter Smith Joint National Guard Base.

Educators and school counselors from across central and north Alabama flew aboard a KC-135R Stratotanker, experienced the boom simulator, and toured key areas of the base—gaining firsthand insight into the day-to-day operations of this Birmingham-based unit.

Experiences like this strengthen connections between education and real-world careers while highlighting leadership, teamwork, and service. We're grateful to the 117th Air Refueling Wing for welcoming our educators and sharing their mission.
