Imagine what must’ve been going through students’ minds as they sat in class recently, looked out the window and saw a giant military helicopter landing at their school.

That was the scene at an athletic field at Pomona High School in Arvada on Thursday when an Army helicopter unexpectedly touched down at the school.

The helicopter was supposed to go to Standley Lake High School, located around four miles away in Westminster. The landing at Pomona High School was “inadvertent,” though the cause of the mistake is currently unclear.

Luckily, no one was injured in the “accident,” and the helicopter continued its scheduled appearance at Standley Lake High School. The landing was part of activities at the school in recognition of Day Without Hate.
