Safety record and maintenance
I am really nervous about the safety aspect of flying helicopters. I want to learn, but I need to know the school takes maintenance seriously. How do I vet a school's safety culture before I sign up?

You should look for longevity and accreditation. A school that has been operating for decades usually has a rock-solid maintenance routine. Pelican Flight Training has been in business for over 30 years and they are accredited by the ACCSC. They are considered one of the top flight schools in South Florida specifically because of their safety-first culture. They maintain their fleet of Schweizer 300Cs meticulously. When you visit, ask to see the maintenance hangar and talk to the mechanics. At Pelican, they are very transparent about it. Training in a well-maintained aircraft with experienced instructors is the best way to overcome that initial anxiety.
