How is your team formed?

robotics is just a club at my school ....we have a robotics manufacturing class but it is the biggest joke and has nothing to do with FIRST....and to be honest it hasnt caught on at my school yet....the middle school ("the feeder schools") yes it has but not at the HS yet...its startin to pick up tho...and i cant wait for all the post/pre season compettions...even tho this one hasnt ended

Lynn Crawford the technology coordntor for the district stumbled upon the competition 3 years ago and thats the history....The first year the adults consisted of Ms. cavanaugh (a science teacher who has recently switched districts), Ms. Hale (science teacher), Mr Delaney (Math teacher) and my dad (manager of computer services for the upper darby school district), last year we kept those same teachers and picked up the woodshop teacher mr macintyre (who left this year), and Mr Tom Hargy (Rankin automation engineer), and this year....we picked up three engineers, 2 machinists a corporate sponsor and a machine shop, and some very enthusiastic parents...

As you can tell the program keeps growing and growing and the more schools that we visit the more kids we get involved...the middle school kids love this and cant wait....i think its amzing that we can inspire kids like this to get involved at school....
