SR294: SR294 Pierce County High School Competition Cheerleading Team; congratulate
Last action February 28, 2025 · Senate Read and Adopted
A Georgia Senate resolution congratulates the Pierce County High School competition cheerleading team for winning the 2024 AA Division State Cheerleading Championship.
In plain language
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate rather than a change to state law. It honors the Pierce County High School competition cheerleading team for completing an undefeated 2024 season and winning the AA Division State Cheerleading Championship. The resolution praises the team's teamwork, athleticism, and academics, credits Coach Mandy Beverly for her leadership, and lists the full roster of team members by name. The Senate formally congratulates the team and wishes them continued success, and directs the Secretary of the Senate to send an official copy of the resolution to the team for their records.

Who it affects

Why it matters
