The Southside Junior and Senior High squads attended the NCA Cheer Camp at ASTATE last week. Both teams competed in a band chant and a game day cheer and received blue superior ribbons on their performance. Senior High was awarded on displaying superior skills in props while Junior High was awarded on displaying superior skills in spirit and awarded Top Gun on their dance. Our teams were awarded for stunt safety which earned them a bid to NCA High School Nationals. Eleven of the SCHS cheerleaders were nominated by NCA Staff as All-American Cheerleaders: Addie Davis, Danielle Morgan, Allyson Edmonds, Audrey Branscum, Elisabeth Dobbs, Sibohn Campbell, Amiah Allen, Gracie Frazier, Josey Duncan, Alyssa Adair, and Karol Hernandez. Josey Duncan received All American Honors. All seniors were also recognized and received honors. Go Southerners!!

Before entering the education world, Mr. McDaniel was a squad leader in the United States Marine Corps. “I am extremely excited to join the Southside School District which has a strong reputation for providing high academic achievement and personal growth for all of its students. I am also looking forward to working with teachers, parents, and students to help provide educational and extracurricular opportunities for each and every student.” Also joining the Junior High School is Mrs. Torey Hanna. She will serve as the Assistant Principal to support Mr. McDaniel. Mrs. Hanna currently serves as the High School Counselor at Mountain View, and has several years of experience working within that school district. Mrs. Hanna received her undergraduate degree from Arkansas Tech, her Master’s Degree from the University of Central Arkansas, and her Specialist degree from Arkansas State University. “I am thrilled to be coming to such an amazing and supportive school. I thoroughly enjoy working with junior high students because it is such a pivotal moment in their life. I cannot wait to see where this new journey takes me professionally while building lifelong relationships.” Mr. Jonathan Edwards will also be joining the administration team as Dean of Students. Edwards has been a part of the Southside family for nine years. His roles have included teaching Science at the high school and junior high level, as well as coaching football, track, and wrestling.
