Some days its good to take a few minutes to brag on people that dont get a whole lot of recognition. I just want to thank the cheerleaders and especially their coaches for all of their hard work this season. No one really knows what goes into our season - the hard work, the hours, the dedication. They have been going hard since May, practicing three days a week in the summer and every day during season. They create every banner, hang signs, and coordinate game day stunts, cheers, dance, cheer at volleyball games (only team in this state that does that) etc.... Coaches give up time with their families and friends to put in the time their teams need to be not just good but great. We also have a very strong competition program with athletes practicing four hours every other Saturday, and a dance team that works hard to perfect dance performances for games and special events. Our band is the best in this state, and we work with some of the most supportive staff ever - Its great to have people like Bekah Randall Brooks, Buddy Huckabee, and Amanda Dowdle on board that care about promoting school spirit and supporting our cheer and dance teams. And finally, a huge thank you to our head coaches. Its not easy....was never meant to be.... but I know from experience no one will really know the time and effort you put in for what is often a thankless job. So, thank you to Vanessa Crisp, Taylor Hope Rogers, Tori Dragoo, and Bonnie Peggs for being a part of my ambitious dream to make this a program that is envied across this state and a model that people strive to emulate! On hard days, remember why you started. Take it from someone who has been there, its worth it if you touch just one life. If you seen a cheerleader, a dancer, or a coach - thank them for all they do. Sometimes they just need to hear they are appreciated and noticed.
