If you would like me to write an e-mail or make a phone call to anyone, I would be more than happy to do so. I would go and talk to them, but being 1,000+ miles away makes that a bit of a challenge 
Question about that: If science and technology are not the school's priorities, what are? Sports? Drama? Let me ask you this: what is your school going to put out more of - professional basketball players or professional engineers? Maybe that is a point you should bring up to your administrators.
Again, if you need help with anything, you know I'm here for you.
I wish you the best of luck, my friend.

our big thing at our school is basketball, only the "smart kids" do robotics.
p.s. i don't need luck....i need a new school!
