I wish that my school took that much interest in robotics!
Our team is hardly known about by most teachers, except for the thing that makes us miss 4 days of school.

There's lots of wonderful and inspiring ways to change that and make your team an integral part of the school community. Your team can also become valued and respected by the faculty and staff in a relatively short period of time. It depends on the team and what the team wants to do about it - and - on the team, it only takes one with the vision and tenacity to get it started. Just one. With vision and tenacity and an interest in changing the culture.
