: Because the team puts so much effort into the FIRST program as an extra curricular activity, we have approached the Board of Education with the possibility of making the Robotics First program part of the school curriculum.
: To our surprise we were asked to give them a general lay out of how this type of a program could be incorporated into the school system, as they too thought it was a great idea.' wow'.
: Is any one aware of any school in the FIRST program that has incorporated this into the school curriculum. we would be interested in contacting them for more information.

Our HS has a block program, and we just rolled the Robotics team into a class. Pretty successful. Currently we are like 30/70 class/nonclass, which is fine, we don't want all propellerheads. (Hi Dave & Jason )

However, trying to get a hold of the teacher involved is about impossible. Email any questions you have, and I'll get them answered or get you a phone number.
