I've just moved about an hour's drive away from my team, and while I plan to stay with them this year (I love these kids to pieces and I will miss them very much!), next year I'd like to start a team at my local high school. The problem is I don't have the contacts yet. I only know the band director because I play with the community band. Perhaps he could point me to a technology or computer science teacher? How do I approach the administration with the idea?
