Re: teacher mentor/ dealing with school

Trying thinking outside your box:

Our county has an education intiative group, made up of influential people in the county. They helped lay the foundation for our team. A few big businesses in the area provide grants to the team to cover regional entrance fees. Mentors are from local employers. The community college gives us a workshop and one of our mentors became an adjunct professor to fill that teacher gap; he donates his adjunct salary back to the team- He also won the Woodie Flowers at Philly this year Love You Mr. B! The only thing our school districts give us is during competition season they count our absences as a field trip as opposed to an excused absence. Basically the team is a patchwork of pieces that all come together when we need it to.
