Cheerleaders It takes a lot of dedication to be a Kennedy cheer- leader. The cheerleaders practice daily at zero period during football and basketball season. The cheerlead- ers also give up time after school to cheer at football and basketball games. To be a cheerleader you must have all passing grades at the time of try-outs and while your on the squad. Try-outs are usually held in early spring. Be- fore try-outs there are workshops to teach a few cheers and jumps to all who wish to try out. seams The 1987-88 officers are: Cindi DeVivo:Co-Cap- taing Diane Blessing: Co-Captaing Jennifer Albert- s:Tresurerg Amy Cullen:Secretary and their sponsor is Ms. Linda Dorociak. .
