I can count our most active mentors on one hand.
We have a group of 25ish adults who help out when they can, or have a niche on the team that doesn't require being there every day... but apart from the school district advisor (whose full-time-job is the team) there are only three of us who work with 1923 every single day.
Edit: I definitely don't recommend this for other teams. It's really hard on us, and we burn out quickly. Please do not take this as advice on how to run another team, it's just how it works for us at the moment.
