Mission Statement

The mission of West Feliciana High School cheerleading is to promote school spirit and to serve as ambassadors between our school and community. The West Feliciana cheerleading squad is determined to support all Saints athletics and promote school spirit, reach out to the community through active participation, and promote good sportsmanship. In addition, our philosophy dictates that the development of leadership skills, self-discipline, and positive relationships through mutual respect, trust, and teamwork is equally important as competitions, performances, and sideline support.

  • Promote and uphold school spirit
