And now for a useful post from Robby O - A FIRST School

[Robby O]

This is something I had always thought would be a great idea, and will continue to do so. And ah course when I make it big in the entertainment industry , I want to put up money for the school. But here's the basic thought behind it.

The school is a highschool, but instead of only being taught to learn and remember new things, students are thought to create. Students are shown how to take ideas from the drawing board and bring them to the real world, solve real problems, with the main focus of course being the FIRST competition. The school would have several teams, a machine shop, and computer labs where students can realize thier ideas better than any other school. Well, that's the concept anyways. Wahcha think? I'll post more thoughts on it as they occur. There are a lot of em for the FIRST school idea floatin in my head, but right now my head is a jumble o stuff (stupid mere 3-week summer break...).
