You are in a very difficult situation. You need to have: students, funding, a build space, at least one HS mentor (teacher), + professional mentors if possible.

the problem is, you need them all - leave out one factor and you dont have a team

and its very hard to get people to sign up for one if the rest are all in doubt. It can be done, but understand that for all practical purposes you are starting over to rebuild the entire team.
