Re: Would you believe 14?
Oconomowoc would be 1 high school, but our district is huge. So about 100 sq. miles with kids from 3 different WI counties.

Re: How many high schools are involved in your team?
1 SCHOOL!!
And do you know why??? Because our very uninformed and un-openminded BOE has resrictions on our team, going against the whole principal of the expansion of FIRST!! In the past we had team members from 2 other schools, but were told that they were to be "grandfathered" into our team, and then no other students from those schools would be allowed to join our team. Now what gets me is, the kids we had on our team from the other schools lived in the same town as the kids in our "main" HS (they went to a trade school, and one went to a parochial school in another town) but the funny thing is - their parents still pay taxes in our town and they are entitled to the same rights that the kids in our town that go to the "main" school are they not?? Now the funny thing is this year, we have a kid on our team who used to go to one of those other schools last year, but basically "came back" to the "main" school just to be part of the team... How sad and/or great is that?? He was forced to go to this HS just because he wanted to be on our team.. What do you think of this?? Have any on of your school districts pulled this kind of garbage on you?? (And let's not even go into the fact that because we are a "non-profit" non-school sanctioned team - re: not school funded, that we have to pay and extra (large) fee to use the school if we want to use it on the weekends... But I'll leave that for another thread..) |

Re: How many high schools are involved in your team?
We had 10 high schools involved at once on #339. Now it is down to about 5 or so. The way we did it was to meet at a central location (actually, an unused school building) and there we designed and built our robot. Our marketing team would alternate between the different counties every other week.
