1998-1999 Cheerleaders

Inducted 1999

Cheerleading

The 1998-99 Cheer squad coached by Dawn Hill, was a squad that consisted of all seniors. In 1999, Ms. Hill stated “they have a great deal of talent and they work very well together”. Cheerleader Latonya Templeton claimed that “cheerleading is such a fun program to get involved with, but it also is a lot of hard work. Ms. Hill is a very committed coach who takes a lot of her time to spend with the squad. I feel like all coaches should be committed like she is”.

This impressive cheer squad earned several awards for their work dating back from the summer prior to the school year, including:
