I'd be super interested in learning why a current student wouldn't be interested in districts!

Back when I was a student, and the district model was being introduced in Michigan and discussed within MAR, I was also pretty naive and thought it was literally the worst thing to happen to FRC because I liked the flashy large regionals and didn't think through the entire impact of the model.

I'm really glad I gave it a chance within MAR and learned to love districts, and now the students I have worked with love them as well!
