Cheerleader Tryouts

A few months ago, this girl decided she wanted to be a cheerleader in jr high. She came up with a plan and asked me to sign her up for cheer lessons. I did & she has been going on Monday evenings.

This past week, she has been going to cheer clinics at school to learn a dance, cheer and chant. It all came down today. Girls from across the district gathered at Taylor High School and did their thing. They tried out in groups of 3. Lexi was #4. The girls around her weren’t very confident and watched/copied her the whole time. She said she made a couple of minor mistakes, but the girls copied so the judges might not have known.

Her tryout was at 11 am. A few hours later, the names were posted on the school’s website. Lexi was thrilled to see her name at the TOP of the list (alphabetical by first name). She has been on cloud nine all afternoon & evening.
