3413
Registered Students: 24
Mentors/Coach:2
School Size:3500

I don't know exactly why our percentage is so off actually. There is a STEM academy within our school, but only about 3-4 people on the team are from it. Otherwise it's a lower to upper middle class school.

Excellent information base! Its very interesting to see these stats. We have 2 teachers, and about 5 or 6 mentors along with 10 or so active parents. So, a solid team at that.

This is gonna be scary.

Team size: 8 students(of them only 5 show up regularly, including me

school size: about 800-ish

mentors: 2

[TD78]

Aquidneck Island Robotics (AIR) 4-H club
7 FLL teams
2 FTC teams
FRC Team 78, AIR Strike

We are the largest 4-H club in RI and will take anyone willing to drive where we work. The 100+ kids in AIR come from 30+ schools in roughly a 20-25 mile radius from Newport, RI, and include home school kids, and public and private high schools. There are over 60 active volunteers, mentors, and parents helping out all ten teams. We have no teachers in the club who are associated with any of the schools.

For FRC this year, on my roster there are ~35 kids from 10+ middle and high schools and ~30 adult volunteers.

for 294 we have about 30-35 students, with most from a school of 2000ish and about 3 of the 30 from a separate high school, obviously were trying to do a little recruiting

[Karibou]

1189 draws from the two high schools in the district, so the total student body is around 3000. Taking both schools into consideration, we would probably be a pretty average middle class district with a very high emphasis on athletics.

Team size: 45
Mentors/parents: 20 (that number may be higher)
Teachers: 1

[apalrd]

33:
Team Size: ~30 students
School Size: ~750 students
Engineering Mentors: 4 (2 from Chrysler, 1 from BAE systems, 1 college student/alumni)
Non-Engineering Mentors: 4 (2 from Chrysler, 1 teacher, 1 alumni)
Active Parents: 3

More team background:
Notre Dame Prep(33) is a private school. Most of the nearby public schools have FRC teams as well.
We are considered to be in Auburn Hills, because we were originally from Avondale high school (Auburn Hills, the yellow jackets) and are located at the Chrysler Tech Center, in Auburn Hills.

We are in a very FRC team-dense area. According to OPR data, we are ranked 11th in the world. However, we are ranked 3rd in our county (behind teams 67 and 469)

District Background: Milwaukee Public Schools (MPS) is considered a pretty poor district over-all; both economically, as well in proficiencies of reading and math. However, we have a very diverse group of students in both skin color, socio-economic status, and educational background on our team.
