We will be meeting with the school board in a couple weeks and I want to have as much "wow-able" info to take with me. We'll also be promoting FIRST with all of it's great qualities.
First, talk to the Industrial Tech, Computer, or Physics teachers at your school. They should be into stuff like that. I think if you take the robot to the school board meeting and give a demonstration of it, it should really help. If they can see what you accomplished, and this was all STUDENT made, that should be a tipping point. A few pictures/videos from build season may help too. I hope the meeting goes well ; we have one coming up too.
