Re: Team Member Expectations

My team met Monday to Friday, 4 to 8. We were given about 80 minutes to do homework after school then walk to our build site (off school campus). Towards the end of the season (last month) we started meeting on Saturdays for about 4 hours. There were some members that met on Sunday every once in awhile but I didn't due to having some sort of social life. Most nights, 4 to 5 of the members (including myself) would get there around 3:30, then wouldn't leave until maybe 9 or 9:30. Towards the end of the season (and a couple days at the beginning) the 4 of us stayed until 10:30 at least, getting whatever we could done. It sounds pretty sad but we actually seemed to get more work done when there were less of us. Of course towards the end of the season we were at the build site past midnight. We were never told we had to go home and do homework, we were just expected to take care of it. I honestly fell a little behind in one class and am still making it up right now, but most classes I didnt do any worse in academically.
