Re: Do Non-School Teams Have An Advantage?
We are 100% integrated with our school, to the point of it now being a daily class for up to 90 minutes every school day, all year long. (whoo!). And aside from that, it lets us tap a ton of facilities, equipment, resources, and funding streams. Those teams who believe that schools are evil and you'll never accomplish anything inside of one, well, I'm sorry to hear that, but you're looking at the wrong school, and you're really limiting yourselves in big ways by not associating with a school.
