There is absolutely NO way that thats gonna happen, why, because there isn't enough support from the parents at the school, remind me again HOW MANY KIDS BOTHERED COMING TO CHAMPIONSHIP?
Thats exactly why,
1694's mentor might turn over to mentor team 1402, thats right 1402 might be back next year
now to tell you how it worked at MY school (Freedom High School, 1402)
It was a dual class/club
ie: the teacher would teach classes, but would have small classes mixed in bewteen, for example, his first year, all the students in his 6th period were on the robotics team, so we turned it into a robotics class, (we got college credits for electrical, and our teacher made it count as a AP class) we would practice with labs and mind storm kits etc. during the fall and get a jump on build during the spring, do scouting online, that type of stuff. probably my favorite class in high school while it lasted.
P.S. Hidden message, read between the lines
