Re: Stipend for advisors?

Our teacher gets $300, pretty low I think. When I was working at NASA this summer and going around for support of robotics education I came across the bill that should be introduced very soon by Congressman McCarthy from NY and Langevin from Rhode Island. It is aimed to provide teacher stipends for robotics at every high school with a robotics team and also provide training for those teachers that don't know as much. That is all the details I know right now, but I think it would be great.
