Our school rarely acknowledges us, and when we do it's never good. When we brought home our championship blue banner in 2014, our school gave us no recognition until the next fall, and even then we had to nearlt beg for that. When we are acknowledged by the student body it's never good. This is mainly due to one former team member who quit due to some issues with specific other team members. Unfortunately people tend to listen to and trust what he says, and he has a tendency to bad mouth our team. This has been a huge hit to us, as it has framed our team as very undesirable to be part of at our school, and that has made recruitment very difficult.

Edit - our superintendent is very supportive and even traveled from Michigan to STL to watch us compete. However the administration at our high school, many of the teachers, and most of the students show little/no recognition or respect for our team.
