In addition to their cheerleading duties, which include cheering at numerous athletic
events held by their school and a rigorous
practice schedule, each of these girls must
maintain an overall grade average of 80 or

community service activities, such as the
American Cancer Societys Relay for Life, The

elementary and middle schools, building and
promoting school spirit.
