School Administration troubles

[Nibbles]

It seems like our district administration hates us. The school level staff likes us, but it is the governing board that seems to write all rules that make it impossible to do something as simple as purchase tools or build a website (please don't ask). That is why I am inviting them all to the regional this year. The advice so far is the best, put on a good presentation, get other area teams to testify with a good letter, get mentors involved. In the short term I would highly recommend adult leadership of the team.

If that doesn't end up working out, quite a few teams work away from school at another location. It WILL take lots of work, but with enough searching and asking, there is a sponsor out there (different schools/districts included) that will give you space to work and store materials. You will want to find somewhere for dedicated, long-term storage of materials somewhere.
