This seems like a GREAT way to recruit new students to your FRC team, train team members, or get a teacher/school administrator more excited about competitive robotics in the classroom (I'm sure Karthik will be smart enough to bring a couple of the Teacher Handbooks *cough* right KK? *cough*).
Even if you're not going to play in the Classroom Competition event at IRI, please spend a few minutes talking to Karthik, JVN, or Paul about the Classroom Competition offerings and how they might help your program or grow a new one near you.
There's a LOT of bang for the buck:

Thanks to Chris and the IRI folks for making this opportunity possible
