Schoolyard UFO Encounters: 100 True Accounts

by Preston Dennett

Schoolyard encounters, however, are different from the average encounter in several fundamental and profound ways. First, almost all of them occur during the day. Compared to nighttime sightings, daylight sightings are relatively rare, so this is an important distinction and reduces the possibilities of misperception. Secondly, these are not simple fly-overs. In these cases, the UFOs are targeting schools directly, appearing from a distance, and then approaching the schools and hovering. Thirdly, almost without exception, schoolyard UFO encounters involve very low-level sightings of solid, metallic objects. Most “regular” UFO sightings are of anomalous lights several thousand feet high in the sky. Schoolyard sightings, however, typically involve objects that are at most a few thousand in altitude, in most cases, a few hundred feet or less, in some cases much less.
