The Benefits of Cheerleading

Written By Hallie Hanley

East Heights Elementary School is an amazing place. There are lots of things to love about it. One thing I really enjoy about East Heights is its cheer team. I have benefited from the team in many ways; both physically and mentally. The East Heights cheer team has really boosted me socially and allowed me to make new friends. Also, it taught my whole team and I how to work together and have good sportsmanship. The cheer team has also taught me new skills. I learned so many things that have benefited me as a cheerleader and just as a person. The cheer team was a very good beginning for me as a cheerleader and pushed me to do even more things, like cheering in middle school next year. All in all, the East Heights Elementary’s cheer team is truly amazing.
