Re: Team Homes for Home Schoolers

I know that 2783 EOT was actually started as an FLL team for homeschool children. It later evolved into an FRC team with a nearly even mix of home school and non home school (public/private).

I know from the other team I have expereince on, 1747 HBR, that insurance with the school is the worst hurdle... 1747 lost shop access for a while due to the city school kicking out the county schools' students due to insurance... with the dangers of machine tools, welding, and the robot itself, the liability is quite high.
