Re: "Robotics" Team or Club
Our school officially lists us as a "Club", but we get treated like a "Team".
One point I would make is that all of these things listed below did not happen by MAGIC. We had to fight for each one over the course of 6 years.
We won the items below by acting as a team when others try to categorize us as a club.
Don't give up!!! Fight for what you deserve!!
Team 341 has:
1) The Gym for Ramp Riot (our off-season comp.)
2) We get excused from school for Robotics
3) School letter after 2 years of service
4) Full bus service year-round
5) $6K budget
6) 1 Coach and 2 assistant coach co-curricular salaries
7) Use of shop area (we bought the equipment)
8) Invitations to present to board at least twice a year
9) Time off to visit elementary classrooms
10) Robotics listed on kids transcripts
11) Robotics Course offered every other year
And probably a few others that I am not thinking of.
But the trick is that we never act satisfied. Just like Dean, we always ask for more respect, time, and $.
Robotics Deserves it!!
