Cheerleaders It’s only a quarter! The Cheerleaders have the support of the entire student body at the pep rallies. Vitality, enthusiasm, co-operation, sportsmanship, ability and hard work— these are a few of the essential characteristics of a cheerleader. Their practice begins in the summer and continues throughout the year as they work toward a common goal—to pro- mote school spirit.

Crashing through the mighty ‘Eagle’, the cheer- leaders lead the team to victory.
