Well, our team has a lot of schools, but here's how my school recognizes our team.

We get a float in the homecoming parade.

We are allowed to have fundraisers.

We get an assembly.

We get mentioned on the announcements.

We are not a physical sport, we are a "competitive event in the field of robotics."

It's pretty cool that we do get some fame at our school. Everybody keeps asking if we're going to build a Battlebot.
