Photo Friday - Stockard Middle School Cheerleaders Place At Competition

The L. V. Stockard Middle School cheer squad recently placed second in the the Cheer Power State Competition at Six Flags in Arlington!
"Twenty girls were part of this project since August 2010. They started with no uniforms and no experience. They practiced Monday through Friday, after-school till 6:30 every day. They fundraised $3,500 by December 2010. They were able to buy cheerleading uniforms and pay for all competition fees. Big Thought sponsored this group buying them pom-poms, socks, and performance bows to use the day of competition.  I'm glad I was able to enjoy this experience with an awesome group of kids!" - Coach Jessica Weems
Congrats to the Stockard cheerleaders for their hard work and their second place win!
