Re: How much does your school support your FIRST Team?
1293's lucky to have a pretty supportive district in general, plus a pretty helpful staff at Irmo High School, where we build. School District Five pays for the entry fee for Palmetto--any shirts, additional events, parts, or sexy use of aluminum comes from sponsors, parents, or from our own pockets. Our coach has keys to the places where we work, so access generally isn't an issue so long as we clean up after ourselves.
All told, it works out pretty well.
