My School more or less did the same. Our Techology supervisor for the school system and thought it was cool so she set the team up. The school basically said, if you can raise the money yourself, and get some sort of adult to supervise (In our case those would be the couple of mentors with us on the team) Then go ahead. But then again, the Machine shop we have been using was 5 years old, and hadn't had a class in it. So we had to replace almost everything this year short of a laithe, Using the funding we had aquired.

Note: To any one who was offended, the post about having your parents call you off school, if the school didn't support the team was a Joke. Just so we're clear .
