Masuk High School School Cheerleaders are Great Role Models

The cheerleaders served as role models to the Stepney Elementary School Wildcats Reading Team.

To the Editor:

Stepney Elementary School Wildcats Reading Team is so very proud and grateful to this year's Connecticut Class LL State Champion Masuk High School Panthers Cheerleading Team. Each member on this team has a special place in every Wildcat heart.

On February 3, 2012, a nervous group of Wildcats went onto the Masuk High School basketball court during halftime, sang and Sign Languaged "You're a Grand Ole Flag" to share their love for reading and creativity with the community. After finishing the song, the Awesome Masuk Cheerleaders started chanting "LET'S GO WILDCATS!"

Soon after, fans attending the game started this chant. Cheerleaders came over to the Wildcats, high fived, hugged, and congratulated each child. This made the Wildcats feel like a $1,000,000 and their confidence went sky high after this special moment in time.

Wildcats followed up by writing letters of invitation to the cheerleading squad to attend an original play entitled Wildcats & The Candy Factory held at Stepney Elementary School on Wednesday evening, May 9, 2012.

The entire team and coaching staff attended the play and cheered for and participated with the Wildcats. The Wildcats are so grateful to the Masuk Panthers Cheerleading team, our play next year will have a cheerleading segment, and of course, this group will be called The Panthers!

Thank you again, Masuk Cheerleading Team! :)

You are all great role models! Thank you very much for your time and support.  

Sincerely yours,

Stepney Elementary School Wildcats Reading Team
