Community Engagement:

Air University and Squadron Officer School have a long history of supporting and engaging with the local community and city of Montgomery. During the duration of Squadron Officer School, many flights and students typically volunteer at the local animal shelter, homeless shelter, help with beautification efforts, and assist in mentoring and developing members of the surrounding area. We also host a blood drive for the American Red Cross and the Armed Services Blood Program every class. Squadron Officer School is proud to call Montgomery home and works to keep our community relations strong!
