SJS Cheerleader Sign-Ups

The Saint James School 2022-2023 Cheer Team is open to girls in 4th – 8th grade.  Students interested in Cheer must submit the following to the main office by Friday, October 21st.  Unfortunately, we are not able to guarantee spots on the team for late submissions due to the required ordering of team items.

1. Cheerleading Permission Slip

2. $80 Activity Fee*

3. 2022-2023 Character Contract

Also, in order to participate, students must have their 2022-2023 Athletics Health Permission Form (signed by their doctor) on file with the school.  This can be submitted after 10/21, but students will NOT be able to participate in any practices, etc. until this form is on file with us. (Students running Cross Country for SJS do NOT need to submit a new form).

*The $80 activity fee will include a warm-up jacket and select other team-related expenses.  Please note, cheer shoes will be required and are not included in the activity fee.  Shoes will cost approximately $30 (a purchase link for the shoes will be sent by the coaches to families of participating students).

Cheer practice will begin on November 3rd and run through early March.  Practices will be held Thursdays right after school from 2:00pm – 3:30pm in the gym. Student pickup (for those not going to aftercare) will be outside the gym doors at 3:30pm.

Students will cheer at various basketball games throughout the season (sideline cheering and half-time routines), including on Saturday mornings.  Some travel may be required.
