Mrs. Millan from Miami, FL is requesting books through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Cheer Like a Beauty. Train Like a Beast.

Help me give my students and cheerleaders the tools they need. Ankle weights will help my cheerleaders work on building up the leg muscles they need to improve their jumps and bows will help them look cute meanwhile.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

My cheerleaders are creative, talented, and very eager to progress! They all come with different cheer experience and some have never cheered before. Every practice they improve and grow their love for the sport. They love trying new skills and watching their teammates succeed.

My cheerleaders' level of dedication and commitment is truly admirable!

Their self-discipline and willingness to try new skills makes every practice enjoyable! They not only work hard at practice, but they go home and put in even more hard work.

My Project

My cheerleaders work hard, not only at practice, but at home as well. They strive for perfection and never settle on mediocre. Having these items will help them immensely improve their skills.

Using ankle weights will aid my cheerleaders in building the leg muscles which will enhance their jumps.

Flyers can also use the ankle weights to build strength in their ankles which will help them become more stable in the air. This year we have a practice uniform, but no bows. Having team sets of bows will make us look more uniform and presentable at our practices and other school events.
