Highlight of the QHS Cheerleaders and Academic Award Recipients

Cheerleading Workshop

Academic Awards

Congratulations

By Ebonie Hill and Brittney Burkhead

It’s time to cheer! The cheerleading squad is here. There was a workshop every Monday after school, which will continue to be on Thursday, for the future cheerleaders. The cheerleading workshop is designed to teach the basics to the young ladies that will be trying out on May 1^st through the 5^th.
   “In the workshop, students learned cheers, jumps, and kicks,” says QHS cheerleader Rachel Davis. However, the workshop focused on cheers. The current cheerleaders taught some of the workshop.
   In the tryouts the potential cheerleaders will perform a dance together. The students who do well during the dance will become cheerleaders. Additionally, the students are required to make up an eight-count dance that they will be graded on. When asked what she wants the girls to learn from cheerleading, Rachel Davis said, “School spirit and new friends”. The current cheerleaders are very excited about the turnout of the workshop.

To receive an academic award is a well-earned achievement. Those who receive it know that it is not easy to get. One has to work very hard and at the same time be responsible for his or her work and make good use of his or her time. On March 2^nd Quincy High honored those students who achieved academic excellence during the spring of ’05 & fall of ’06.
   The event took place in the cafeteria. Entertainment was provided by the Jazz Band led by Mr. Gilberti. There was an array of desserts concocted by the culinary arts class.              
   Mrs. Bequette and Mr. Gallagher handed out the awards. In all there was about 120 students who received an academic award.     
   This event was sponsored by: Sierra Pacific Industries, Rotary Club, QHS Boosters, Plumas County Sheriff’s Department, and the Plumas National Forest Employee Association.
   There was a raffle, and gift certificates from businesses like Body & Soul, Pizza Factory, Town Hall Theater, and Carey’s Candy CO. were awarded.
   Although some people believe that receiving an academic award is an honor, others believe it is just a symbol of hard work. Yet some believe it is both. They believe that it does take hard work, but also that by working hard you are showing pride in the work that you do and honoring yourself by achieving this goal of an academic award.
   Although it is difficult, there are a lot of students working hard and taking pride in our school, and you can too. Take pride in your school and your work.
