Do a Google Search of "Project AstroNova"
It pairs an experienced astronomer with a teacher, usually a
science teacher and the two develop a variety of activities. You'll
produce results more to your liking working in an appreciative
environment than struggling to get support from disinterested
people.
If you want to make a difference, find an environment populated
by kindred spirits.
