In that case, I'll emphasize one of my points. It is critical that you find committed adult leadership, whether they be teachers, parents, or engineering mentors, as soon as possible. Contact your school, students' parents, local businesses, local teams, and local colleges. They are vital to the success of a FIRST program. I've seen too many student driven teams fail, not because they were student driven, but because the students had a "we can do it on our own" attitude.
Work hard, and accept every little shred of help you can get. You'll go far.
