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

Our team is a combination of all the high schools in our county since our county is small. we have approximately 400 kids at each school, the majority of them not even knowing or caring about the team at all. Of our 15 students on the team, my high school has provided 7 of them. My high school is pretty supportive of it. Like, when the Engineering Program that is offered through the vocational school in our county does a presentation at my high school, they allow us to bring our demo/practice bot to show off and we bring a sign up sheet to get more potential students. And at Open House they let us bring the robot too to show off. But that's about the extent of the publicity of the team at my high school other than word of mouth. The other schools in the county don't publicize the team that much either.
