Re: Expanding a Robotics team

Good Luck.

Our school has tried open houses, direct recruitment, even has an educational class in programming for robotics and membership has declined.

Is your principal or director involved? If not, ask to make an appointment with them to talk about how to increase student participation. You'd be surprised what that can do.

Do you have teachers that run the meetings?
