New (breakaway) team, very nervous...

Ok, there\'s a very long background story to it, but right now I\'m pressed for time. Basically, the administration seems like a huge brick wall. We lost thousands in funds (source: anonymous), board and student support is less than desirable, and so much more. So, a few of us are creating a new team. I\'ve been thinking about for months, but never brought it up. It was confirmed during a core student group meeting when a few others said it.

Doing so will enable us to bring in more sponsors (they wouldn\'t let us here, didn\'t give a valid response as to why), recruit students from a neighboring district, private school, and homeschoolers in the area. I\'m just worried we won\'t be able to find good transportation, enough funds/sponsors, or even worse, a place to work in the area.

This isn\'t as much of a we-need-help thread more so than a we-need-morale-support thread. I just want this transition to be smooth.


I\'ll post more later. Sincerily,
David Thomas
