1. HHS Cheerleading 2015-2016 JANON DEWBERRY LINDSEY CLOUD ELAINE ROWELL

2. Cheer Squad Specifics Due to financial and logistic reasons, we have opted to conduct one tryout for all HHS Cheerleaders. Everyone will cheer for HHS football. After the tryout, we will choose the competition squad based on tryout scores. Students who are not selected for competition squad will cheer for basketball. This may change if we don’t have the desired number of cheerleaders to make each squad. BENEFITS OF THIS ARRANGEMENT: Increased number of participants will result in a decreased time commitment during basketball season. An elite competition squad that can boost student morale.
