Dobie cheerleaders show school spirit
February 23, 2017
From football to basketball to competitions and more, Dobie cheerleaders work hard to show school spirit during games, events and more.
“I joined cheer because it’s something I like to do,” said Jadyn Jackson, 8th grader.
Cheerleaders meet for class each day to work on their skills. They also have practice and games after school. BEing a cheerleader takes physical strength and stamina. Cheerleaders must also be good role models to other students. To be a member of the team, the girls must try out the year before.
“I decided to coach cheer because I like the sport and enjoy coaching what I know,” said Mrs. Santos, Co-Sponsor.
Each cheerleaders has a specific position.
“I am a back spot,” Nia McPherson, 8th grader.
“I’m a flyer,” Jadyn Jackson.
The cheerleaders perform cheers and dances and more. They are often the face of Dobie because they are front-and-center in uniform.
“In cheer we do stunts, dance, and cheering,” said Mrs. Garcia, co-sponsor.
It’s hard work, but cheerleaders enjoy helping and supporting Dobie.
“I like cheer, because its something I like to do,” said Jadyn.

My name is M'Kenzie Daniels. I am in the 8th grade. My favorite subject is science. My favorite part of journalism class is being able to write and share...
This is a pretty good story, but it is very short and clipped. There’s not really any emotion being expressed.
It would be better if you could make it longer. Maybe explain what a backspot is? Or a flyer? Because I for one do not know what those are, so many of your readers may not know either.
Anyways, keep up the good work! 😉
Beautiful article, just needs a little touch up. 🙂
I really enjoyed this article, partially because I am glad that the cheerleaders are being supported by the school, as I am one myself. The article is very short and a little more in tell and less quotes would be nice. I did like the way you introduced the coaches and positions we have as cheerleaders though!
I enjoy the article but I would like to have read more information
I really enjoyed how most of the cheerleaders have a quote why they joined, it shows others why cheer is so fun to them and then maybe they’ll want to join.
It’s a good article it just needs more
This was a cool story, cheerleading seems like a lot of work and effort.
This seems like a really challenging sport and not easy.
Great Article.
The article could’ve been a little longer with a little more detail, but it nice that the cheerleaders have an article.
This is great love it
Nice article, but needs to be a little longer.
Its a great story it’s just not written correctly.This article isn’t long and it needs to be more detailed.
this is a good article but it needs more information and less interview q’s. other than that good article.
I overall enjoy this article, but is too short. I want more from it. I enjoy cheerleading myself.
Its a pretty short article but it did teach me more about cheer leading and what the cheerleaders do for us.
This is a really good article, needs a little bit more details though. Other than that perfect.
Good article just remember to add a little more.
This article is really good. Though it’s very short. I would take out some interviews. Also, more detail would be nice.
This is good! (:
Very good article about a club we don’t hear a lot about. Loved how you got quotes from the sponsors.
great article! 🙂
