Re: Two school, One team
Our team has members from the 5 schools in the Fremont Unified School District.
As for how we do "it", there are a few different obstacles that we overcame.
One was that of insurance; our schools (although in the same district) apparently have different insurance policies, thus barring a school-specific club from having members from different schools. Fortunately for us, our head mentor is also the founder of a non-profit, whose insurance covers us.
Also, if you're district allows it, you could make a district-wide club to cover this issue.
Another was that of a meeting space. At first, we held the meetings in our team captain's garage, but then we secured a space at a local University. Unfortunately, it is not a central location, but other wise it is great as it causes the team to be more of a "district team" rather a "school team".
If you need any other specific info, please say so.
