Re: Press Release -- FIRST in ALL NH Schools
I think this is maybe not the greatest thing ever.
Why shoot for 100% FRC participation? It may take years to find the funds, and teams may drop out or not have the support they need to be sustainable if all they're getting is $6,000. Seems like it'd be so much smarter to shoot for 100% FIRST involvement- be it FTC or FRC. The former is dirt cheap relative to FRC. It would be entirely plausible for every school to have one (or more) FTC teams. Furthermore, due to how much fewer resources you need to have a successful FTC program, it seems like the retention rate would be much better than that of FRC.
