Re: How much does your school support your FIRST Team?

I think that over the past few years our school support has gone up.
Last year our new principal came to Peachtree and Championships.
The principal before that came to Peachtree and Championships my Freshman and Sophmore Year.

Last year was a real treat. Before we went to Auburn for the South's BEST competition for BEST robotics, our basketball coach learned of this and asked if it was okay to give us a little talk before hand. He is kinda a big deal to most of us (he coached the east in the McDonalds all star game and has won 4 state championships in 4 years).
I think over the past 3 years, robotics has grown from one of those clubs that peopl look at like "eh, they are ok, kinda cool maybe" to "wow, these guys really do some pretty awesome stuff"
We also get some money from our Magnet Program's foundation for outreach puposes.
This is a new building being built at our school and the school is dedicating 950 sq feet to us.
