Re: "Robotics" Team or Club
As far as I know, each school within District Five considers robotics a club. I don't consider it a knock, since Irmo's science team (state champs this year--woot) and quiz team (back-to-back national champs a few years ago--double woot) are also clubs.
We've got workspace (the engineering classroom at Irmo, plus a storage closet that's just ours, except for one small network switch high up on the wall), and competitions are field trips (and are thus excused). The district also helps with money, but I'd rather not dive off that cliff at 8:13 AM.
