Re: Multi-school teams

Team 662 is a multi school team but with one important difference. All four schools are in the same school district. We have received more support from the district leadership than from any individual school. It seems the school board understands FIRST, but the school principals do not.

Our students seem to work well together because they have a common interest in robotics and building things. The only issues that I have seen so far is that the web and animation teams work at one of the schools so the students for those teams come primarily from one school. Robot design and build are done at a neutral site so this is not a problem.
