Help-Joining different district's team

[CoconutKnight]

I am from a smallish town in southeast Michigan. I been involved on my school's FIRST team in 2003-2004 I had dificulites with them, not liking the engineers. It is not just me. All but one teacher in the past 7 years has quit the team. The last teacher wants to quit but doesn't want the team to be discontinued. In the 2004 fall I was the MVP for our OCCRA team. I love robotics and went without it for the FIRST 2005 season, only volunteering at the West Michigan Regional. The event manager loved me and my dedication, and for the most part made me his assistant for that regional. I made many friends in the FIRST community. Including an amazing team (66). I became very good friends with them and have joined their team. Do any other teams have students that come from different schools? They are 45 minutes away, but everything is alright between me and them, it has been worked out. My parents are divorced. My mom thinks they are great, and will drive me sometimes if she can, so I don't have to drive myself being a new driver. My dad says it is like a football team you can pick and choose where you go. He has seen my robot once in 3 seasons and never went to a competition. He is going to the school board for both districts trying to prevent students from joining different teams. (What about the homeschool kids, or people that don't have a team) I know my situation is different, but I need help. Please post if you have any ideas or opinions, I just need to know what to do. I can't stand not being on a FIRST team again. Or e-mail me at Countrygirl523@aol.com Thank you.
