v20 v21 48 48 * School schedule/coordination 49 49 * Faculty advisor 50 * A faculty advisor is critical - we can't meet at the school without one. [mailto:Charles_Lidard@hcpss.org Charles Lidard] is our current advisor. Recruiting more HCPSS faculty to help is very important because attending every meeting is a huge burden for a single teacher. We've received help from many HCPSS faculty including [mailto:Jean_Fregeau@hcpss.org Jean Fregeau], [mailto:Bryce_Cramer@hcpss.org Bryce Cramer], LKMS tech ed teacher [mailto:Edward_Garner@hcpss.org Ed Garner] , and [mailto:Elizabeth_DeFrances@hcpss.org Elizabeth DeFrances] (who was formerly a computer science teacher). We should solicit the help of as many faculty members as possible to help reduce the load on the faculty advisor.50 * A faculty advisor is critical - we can't meet at the school without one.

The Fall schedule leading up to build season should have 1-2 meetings weekly to allow for training and preparation. The build season schedule should have at least 5 days weekly planned (includes !Sat/Sun) up to the day the robot is bagged and the schedule should include 3-5 days for at least the next 2-3 weeks to allow control systems (software) to finish their work and testing, for driver practice, and to allow any small mechanical components needed to be fabricated. The off-season competitions: [http://battleobaltimore.com/info.php Battle of Baltimore] (BoB) and [http://www.irocoffseason.org/ Ilite Robotics Off-season Challenge] (IROC) should be scheduled along with transportation (see below). The competitions after build season should be scheduled as soon as the team is successfully registered for them. 53 53 * Facilities reserved: tech-ed/shop rooms, gym, cafeteria 54 * Early June: Meet with [mailto: Elizabeth_DeFrances@hcpss.org Elizabeth DeFrances] ((410)313-7080) to reserve the gym, aux-gym, or cafeteria for driving/testing practice each team meeting.54 * Early June: Meet with [mailto:Michael_Senisi@hcpss.org Mike Senisi] ((410)313-7080) to reserve the gym, aux-gym, or cafeteria for driving/testing practice each team meeting. 55 55 56 56 * Build-season food - During build season when the team works all day on the weekends, students are not allowed off campus to get food so the team provides lunch for the students and mentors. Food is served and must be eaten in the cafeteria; food and drink are now allowed in the tech ed rooms. One or more parent volunteers manage the purchasing and distribution of food. Some students and some mentors have special dietary needs (vegetarian, vegan, halal, kosher) and should be accommodated where possible:
