Dear Parents and Guardians of Cheerleader Candidates, Your child has expressed an interest in becoming a member of the Sellers Middle School 7th or 8th grade cheerleading squad for the 2018-2019 school year. If selected, there will be certain personal and financial responsibilities and obligations, which your child must assume in order to qualify and remain a member in good standing. Participation in the GISD cheerleading program carries both a significant time and financial commitment. Each cheerleader is expected to meet all financial responsibilities identified by their specific campus. This packet contains all of the information that you will need to know before making the decision on whether or not to allow your child to try out for cheerleader. We hope that you, as a parent/guardian of a perspective cheerleader, are aware of the time and energy it takes to be an effective student leader here at Sellers. It is our intention that after reading through this packet with your child, you will discuss the expectations and obligations of being a Sellers cheerleader with your child. Being a cheerleader makes your child a leader in our school. We believe our school and our students are Better than the Best! and we expect the cheerleaders to set good examples of student conduct at all times. We want our cheerleaders to be exemplary citizens exhibiting high moral and academic standards. We have set forth guidelines that will make our cheerleaders role models in our building. Our organization helps students form friendships, improve communication skills, and develop leadership skills that will prove to be beneficial later in life. A MANDATORY parent and candidate informational meeting will be held on Wednesday, March 7, 2018, at 6:00 p.m. in the cafeteria to go over the tryout process and discuss any questions you may have. All potential candidates, as well as a parent or guardian, are required to attend unless prior arrangements have been made with the sponsors. We wish all candidates the best of luck. Please read this packet carefully and be sure you fully understand each rule and procedure BEFORE signing. The last pages of this packet must be signed and returned by 4:00 PM Monday, March 19, 2018 BEFORE clinic starts. You cannot participate without all forms submitted. No late applications will be accepted!!! Heather Elliott Sponsor Vikki Mahagan Principal Tryout information packets to each middle and high school in the Garland Independent School District are available on the district website: www.garlandisd.net/cheerleader The GISD Cheer Constitution can also be found at this link.

Garland ISD Cheerleading Description Being a cheerleader is an honor and special privilege. Cheerleaders and spirit groups exist to promote good sportsmanship, good citizenship, wholesome, and enthusiastic school spirit and are first and foremost representatives of their school. Cheerleaders should exemplify both individual and group behavior suitable to their position and in accordance with the rules as stated in the GISD Student Code of Conduct. Members of these groups have a fundamental responsibility to play a leadership role in building teamwork and helping the school achieve its goals and objectives. Because of these responsibilities, members of the cheerleading squad will be expected to maintain a higher standard of behavior both on and off campus and academic achievement than that of their peers. Commitment Dedication to, and the prioritization of, cheerleading is obligatory from all cheerleaders to meet the objectives of the program. Candidates selected to be a member of the cheerleading squad are expected to maintain their commitment to the activity for the full cheerleading year. Prior to committing to other school activities, cheerleaders should carefully consider specific program requirements, as involvement in other activities may cause time and participation conflicts with cheerleading duties. Any cheerleader who voluntarily quits the squad before the end of the cheerleading year without the approval of the principal and sponsor will not be allowed to try out for the next year on any GISD campus. A list of spring and summer obligations for Sellers cheerleaders will be given to each new member when the information becomes available. It is very important that all newly selected cheerleaders attend all practices and functions noted. The absence of any member affects the productivity of the entire squad. In addition to all the practices and games, Sellers cheerleaders will have other duties which they will be required to perform throughout the school year and summer. These duties include, but are not limited to, planning pep rallies, painting signs for games and pep rallies, and acting as hostesses for various school activities. A great amount of time and energy will also be asked of the parents/guardians in providing transportation to and from all activities and in other miscellaneous functions during the year.

Cheerleader Expectations Expectations for cheerleaders and other student leaders at Sellers Middle School are extremely high. Please make sure you have read this packet VERY carefully, as it describes the schedule requirements and rules for elected cheerleaders. There are several changes pending the District Constitution this year. Please pay attention to any updates you will receive as they will override anything stated in this packet. If you cannot abide by the schedule, requirements, and/or rules, please reconsider trying out. Grades: Cheerleaders must maintain passing grades or risk extended probation/termination. All cheerleaders will complete weekly grade checks starting the week after tryouts. Grade sheets are due every week on Wednesday mornings before first period unless otherwise determined by the sponsors. Time: If elected, plan to spend an average of two to three hours per week practicing cheers, chants and skits for cheerleading performances. We will also cheer at all football and basketball games from September- February. Games require an average of three hours per week in addition to the above mentioned practice time. Transportation: Each parent/guardian must arrange for his/her own child's ride to and from games, practices and cheerleading functions. You will be given a calendar for all cheerleading functions. Therefore, parents are responsible for their child's timely arrival to events. *Cheerleaders will be issued demerits (which leads up to benching of performances) if parent/guardian is more than 15 minutes late picking them up. After two warnings, a decision will be made by sponsor and principal for possible removal from the squad. Attendance: Do not plan to try out for cheerleader unless you plan to attend all games, practices and cheerleader functions. Please familiarize yourself with the Cheer Constitution for information on what is excused and what is not excused. The GISD Cheer Constitution can be found at the following link. www.garlandisd.net/cheerleader Rules: Keep in mind that being a cheerleader is a privilege. The strictest consideration for, and adherence to all rules is mandatory.

Tryout Eligibility Academic Details If participant has failed any class during the 4 th grading cycle, they must provide a progress report showing passing grades to participate in the Cheerleading Clinic. All participants trying out for the squad must turn in an OFFICIAL Report Card for this school year so far. Students may ask the front office for a copy of their official report card if they misplaced their copy. Enrollment A student is eligible to tryout for cheerleader if either of the two conditions are met: At the time of the tryout, the student is enrolled in the Garland Independent School District and is trying out at the school where the student is registered to attend for the next school year. If the student is not currently enrolled in the GISD, but is registered to attend a GISD campus for the next school year, the student may try out at that campus. A student may try out at only one GISD school. Discipline Any student who has an excessive number of disciplinary referrals (3 or more), has been placed in in-building suspension, suspended from school, or has been placed in an Alternative Education Center by any GISD campus administrator will not be eligible to participate in tryouts without approval from the principal and sponsor.

No results will be distributed at the tryout site.

Middle School Cheerleader Tryout Sequence of Events ANY DEVIATION FROM THE TRYOUT PROCEDURE/REQUIREMENTS MAY RESULT IN THE DISQUALIFICATION OF THE CANDIDATE. Full Group Performance: All candidates should walk in and perform chant, dance, cheer as a group in that order. It should be explained that this is only so the judges can see what the material should look like and that they will not be judged at that time. Full-out jumps and tumbling is not necessary but certainly welcome during this demonstration. Judges should put their pencils down during this time. Group Chant: Groups should consist of 2 or 3 candidates. They should enter the gym so that that they end up standing in numeric order from left to right. (From the judge s viewpoint) There should be no tumbling or spirit during this time, only uniform walking. Once the nod has been given, the designated candidate should call for the group cheer to begin. Upon completion, the candidates should wait for the judges to finish scoring. Group Dance: Once the nod has been given, the designated candidate should call for the dance to begin, or the school representative should start the music for the dance. Once this has been completed, the candidates should remain in their spots until they are told to leave. This will enable the judges to correspond the scores with the candidate numbers. The group categories mentioned above should be repeated until all groups have been performed. Individual Entrance: Candidate number #1 should enter the gym and wait for notification from the judges that they are ready. After the judges have nodded, the candidate should run in showing and soliciting spirit and enthusiasm doing whatever tumbling pass they wish if they are able. Once they are done with their entrance, they should stop in the center of the gym and wait for notification that the judges are ready for the next step. At this point, the judges will score the tumbling, spirit/enthusiasm, and the candidate s presence/poise. Presence/poise will include appearance with regard to the hair being out of the face, shirts tucked in if possible, shorts not being too short, proper shoes, facial expressions, etc. Individual Jumps: Once the nod has been given, the candidate should do whatever jump they wish to do first and then wait for a nod before doing their second jump and then their third jumps, giving the judge s time to score each jump. Each high school candidate must perform a toe touch, a right hurdler, a left hurdler, and a double toe touch. Each middle school candidate must perform a toe touch, left OR right hurdler, and a jump of their choice. The jump of their choice can include, but is not limited to, a jump that they have already performed. Tumbling stunts will not count as jumps. Individual Cheer Once the jumps have been completed and the nod has been given, the candidate should begin their cheer. The cheer will have a section(s) incorporating a jump(s) and/or tumbling. Candidates will be scored based on difficulty and execution as well. Candidates will also be judged on their smile, motion technique and voice projection during this time. Once the candidate has completed their cheer, they should exit the gym. No score will be given for an exit tumbling pass or spirit. As candidate #1 is walking out, candidate #2 should walk in and wait for the judge s nod. These steps should be repeated until all candidates have performed all categories mentioned to this point.

Tabulation of Scores An administrator will be present at the tryouts. Scores will be tabulated by a person not connected to the tryout using a computer generated formula that will be used district-wide. There are 100 points available from each judge. Each judge will enter his/her scores into a scoring spreadsheet. Those scores will automatically transfer to a master spreadsheet. The tabulation spreadsheet will automatically throw out the scores of the lowest and highest scoring judges. Results will be based on the average of the remaining three scores. Each candidate must score a minimum percentage in order to be placed on the cheerleading squad. o Minimum Score for 7th grade is 30% o Minimum Score for 8th grade is 35% The top 10 scoring candidates with a minimum score from each grade level will be selected to the squads. Professional judges with outstanding credential and references will be hired for all tryouts. They will be instructed to judge the candidates based only on the mastery of the skills that they see demonstrated during the tryouts. Tryout results will not be challenged because of prior knowledge of judges and candidates. Every attempt is made to hire judges that have not worked with students in the Garland area. However, with the hundreds of camps in the state of Texas, attended by thousands of cheerleaders and taught by hundreds of instructors, it may be possible at some time that a member of the judging panel may have had some contact with a candidate who is trying out. Requests for Scores: Requests for scores will be honored as outlined in the cheerleading constitution. Those candidates wishing to receive their scores quickly should provide a stamped, self-addressed envelope to the sponsor PRIOR to the start of tryouts. Individual score sheets will be mailed no later than Monday. Other requests for scores can be made through the school principal. Announcement of 2018-2019 Squads: Once the tryout process is complete the scores will be tabulated. After the tryout is complete, each candidate will be given an envelope containing a website address. The website will list those who made the 2018-2019 cheerleading by their tryout number in numerical order.

Financial Responsibility It is the responsibility of each cheerleader to meet all financial obligations. Every effort is made to make all expenses minimal. Failure to meet the stated financial obligations will result in a principal review which may lead to removal from the squad.
