Re: How much does your school support your FIRST Team?
my school does NOT support our FRC team at all.
even though we are a rookie, and may be going to nats...
the school recently decided to help pay for us if we go to atlanta.
but during build season, we were given a classroom, denied entrance to the workshop, and kicked out at five o clock most days.
and, an interesting conversation between me and a girl in my class when i was telling everyone about what the team was.
her-"ew....robotics?...NERD!" *laughs...gets 3/4 of the class laughing*
me-*stands up* YEAH. I'M SMART. TOO BAD YOU AREN'T.
her-well....yeah. *walks away*
i thought to myself...
SCORE:
ROBOTICS-1
SKEPTICS-NEGATIVE THREE.
our school also refers to us as a "club" denying us priveleges such as...oh, i don't know....FUNDING?
and our "club advisor" is not even a science/math/computer teacher.
not very fun.
hopefully better times next year.
