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.
