Re: Ontario Teams in Jeopardy for 2012/2013?
Team 1325 has been wrestling with this problem since the beginning of the conflict and has been transitioning into a new system. We still have the blessing of working in our school and having a board moderated bank account by getting a school administrator to help out. They handle all the of the back end management that many students take for granted (permission forms, police checks for mentors etc) and secured us a permit to work in the school allowing the team to continue to exist.
A downside is that we do not have access to the schools shop after school (as the administrator is not certified to operate the machinery), however with the help of outside sponsors, mentors and hand tools the team is doing fine.
We suggest teams in jeopardy to reach out to their administration (VP's, principal etc) to try and get supervision or permission.Team 1325 wishes all Ontario teams the best of luck with the upcoming FRC season and beyond.
