Per Reed Steele..."I will be teaching Ham and Morse code to the students in
the Astronaut Boot Camp the week of July 23-27. I would love to have the
students get the opportunity to talk on the radio with someone sometime
during the week. We done it in the past and it ignites a spark in them.
Would it be a possibility to have someone standing by for about 15 to 20
minutes. Monday is the scheduled day to begin their Morse code training so
I’d like to have them talk then, but I can flex the schedule a little to
meet their needs."

I'm practically in a Faraday cage at work so getting out with an HT is
impossible).  Any local hams that can monitor and provide short QSO's for
the kids would be appreciated.  It usually consists of short
questions/answers and it's fun to hear them on the air.
