Expectations of Cheerleaders

Cheerleaders represent Clark High school and therefore should keep that in mind both in and out of school.

Members of the squad are expected to hold themselves to a high standard that sets an example for other students.

Cheerleaders involved in illegal activities such as use of alcohol or other substances will be removed from the squad.

Grades

All cheerleaders need to maintain at least a 2.0 GPA but students should focus on achieving a higher GPA because grades are important!

Any cheerleader that is failing a class will be benched for the following week from the game(s). Failing a class for more than three weeks

will result in removal from the squad.
