## Summaries written by Georgia Commons

The following was written by claude-sonnet-5 from the text above and is not part of the resolution. Quote the text, not the summary.

A House resolution recognizes the Pierce County High School cheerleading team for winning the 2025 GHSA Class 2A State Cheerleading Championship, the school's ninth state title.

### Plain-language summary

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia General Assembly, not a change to state law. It congratulates the Pierce County High School cheerleading team for winning the 2025 GHSA Class 2A State Cheerleading Championship, which the resolution notes was a consecutive title and the ninth state championship in the school's history.
The resolution names the team's coaches, Mandy Beverly and Megan Nix, and lists all seventeen student-athletes on the championship squad. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to the team as a keepsake honoring the achievement.

### What it does

- Formally congratulates the Pierce County High School cheerleading team for winning the 2025 GHSA Class 2A State Cheerleading Championship.
- Names and commends coaches Mandy Beverly and Megan Nix for their leadership of the team.
- Lists all seventeen student-athletes on the championship roster by name in the resolution's text.
- Directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to the team.

### Who it affects

The Pierce County High School cheerleading team, its named coaches and student-athletes, and the school community are recognized. The resolution has no effect on the general public, other schools, or state law.

### Why it matters

The resolution carries no legal or financial effect and changes no Georgia law. Its practical impact is symbolic: it creates an official state record honoring the team's achievement and gives the school and athletes a keepsake copy from the General Assembly.

### Key provisions

- The resolved clause has the Senate congratulate the team and wish players, coaches, and supporters continued success.
