Cool Re: Have You Attended Multiple High Schools? Do They Have FIRST Teams?

Yeah, you'll still be in the same town, and they'd skin you (metaphorically speaking of course) if you defected to the cross-town rivals. 166, however, might be considered an even exchange.

In my case, I moved an hour away and needed to find a closer team. I'd be loyal but driving to Nashua in the snow this year has convinced me that it's not quite a good idea. (That's why you saw me at Mayhem -- it was nice non-snowy weather.)

More on-topic, I only went to one high school (Locust Valley HS in Locust Valley, NY), and every year I look for their new FRC team only to be disappointed. I kinda wish they'd had FIRST when I was there, but then, when I graduated (1996), FIRST was only five years old and likely existed only in New England. What matters is I'm here now, I suppose. I would have liked to have been a student at some point rather than just a mentor, though.
