Cool New to RC Planes, help getting started

Hello, I am a high school teacher and I inherited a classroom full of supplies, tools, and airplane kits. I don't have a clue as to how these things operate, or come togetheretc. I have very little experience with RC vehicles and models but I know airplanes are a different task. I have boxes full of brand new kits which include:
Navistar Elite
Uproar ARF
Big Stik 40
Super Sportster 40
Giles G 202
Funstar MK2
and so much more. These are just a few. There's about 15 boxes with brand new ARF kits.
I also have dozens of brnad new O.S engines, radios tanks, you name it.

I'd like to start one on my own so I can feel more comfortable when I begin teaching it to students.

I'm pretty sure everything I'll need is in this classroom because there's a few kits already built and some that are even crashed.

My level of mechanical ability is probably advanced when it comes to real vehicles like maintenance, repair, fuel pumps, transmissions, etc. Dont want you to think I'm a total newbie in that dept. I know my way around a shop.

I'll upload a few pics soon of what I have currently. Thanks for any help and any advice you may be able to give.
