Re: How Do We Approach Our School For Robotics Letters?
Exactly! I think the only reason we got these letters was because the administrators finally realized how much work we do and how academic and yet fun FIRST Robotics is.

Our team had a Tea With the Robots evening on Thank Your Mentor Day, which was January 25th. We had our administrators come down, teachers, parents, etc. I explained the game to them using the wonderful animation done by Dave Lavery, and each of them looked at me and said "I never knew how wonderful this is...I'm so glad I came!" The day really opened their eyes to what we're all about...what FIRST is all about.
