8th grade I get to show my pride in my school and help everyone have lots of spirit. We have to have good grades to even participate, and I get to make new friends while having fun and cheering.
Nadia Hrynewycz 8th grade We help kids have spirit in school, and they need that because it gives them a positive reason to go to school. It also encourages them to participate in sports and school activities. I get a really good workout, too.
Lynn Gatehouse Teacher, Harvest Park Middle School The girls’ camaraderie is very important, as is the representing the school in a positive way through leadership and spirit. Cheer is a sport in its own right now, and it’s important for the girls to be student athletes and compete in a fun and exciting sport.
