Re: Recruiting
We are currently losing 8 seniors and from interest forms from the upcoming Freshmen Magnet class of 2009, we will be gaining 55 people. This will bring the number up to 149 people.
We do A LOT of outreach events and many kids from these outreach events transfer into our school district to take part in our club.
We have this thing called wildcat daze at our school where all the clubs and organizations have a booth. At this booth we always have a couple of FRC bots, a couple of FLL bots, and a VEX bot or two. This always attracts people. We also work with many local FLL teams. By getting to know these kids and mentors of a lot of teams on a personal level, we can recruit a lot of them into the next level.
We also mentor a few teams and the kids on these teams that are moving up to high school are ither coming to our school to join up and a few are going to their schools to try and get teams started there.
