CODE OF ETHICS A cheerleader is a representative of Pedro Menendez High School whose purpose is to promote and uphold school spirit, as well as to represent PMHS to the highest degree possible in performance, in competition, and in daily life. A cheerleader’s behavior should exemplify good moral character, trustworthiness, friendliness, and leadership. She should be a positive role model for other students, and she should exhibit responsibility, dependability, and integrity for herself and others.
