I think I'm missing something here. So I have a few questions.

1) Is this a school district where all grades (K-12) are in the same district and share resources?
if so...
1.5a) Do you share resources between age levels? So is the FTC kit with the HS kids one year and Middle School the next?

if not...
1.5b) Is sharing resources between districts possible and how do you go about it?

2) How do you keep sponsorship when teams turnover?

3) How is this better than combining the 12 communities to create a few solid FTC, FLL, and FRC Programs under a 501c3 or something?

4) How many years does it take you to recoup the initial purchase of all LEGO kits for the teams and upkeep as LEGO Mindstorms changes?
