The Holston Holston Cheerleaders are award winners.
The Holston High School Cheerleading Team was recently notified that they had received a coveted American School Spirit Award. The award was given by the prestigious Universal Cheerleaders Association. The organization, which was founded in 1974, sanctions training and provides local cheerleading squads with links to resources and competition.
The team received the “Building Spirit Award” because of their commitment to the community. The HHS Cheerleaders provided over 200 sandwiches to needy community members during the Thanksgiving Holiday period. The Association also mentioned how the team had grown in size since being coached by Gina Thomas. The squad has grown in size from four to sixteen members and the school now also has a junior varsity squad.
