Rocketry Program
Plantation High School is widely known for its award winning Aerospace Engineering program. The Rocket Team has consistently ranked in the top brackets of several nationwide competitions in the last decade such as the Team America Rocketry Challenge (TARC) and the Student Launch Initiative (SLI). The program led by one of the Nations best Teachers has stayed in the Top 10 in TARC for the past 7 years the only High School to ever accomplish this feat. In SLI the Aerospace program has been accepted every year to help work side by side with NASA Engineers which "contract" them to build a Rocket with a Scientific payload. With their success and interesting rocket building in SLI a set of rules was set in SLI which the program rightfully calls "Plantation Rules" for they are the reason why the rules were set in the first place.

Famous quotes containing the word program:
“The westerner, normally, walks to get somewhere that he cannot get in an automobile or on horseback. Hiking for its own sake, for the sheer animal pleasure of good condition and brisk exercise, is not an easy thing for him to comprehend.”
—State of Utah, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
