Sequoia Cheer is available to ALL students with skill regardless of income, size, ethnicity or other factors typically associated with the "stereotypical" cheerleader. The reason the Sequoia Cheer Team is one of the best is because of its diversity and the philosophy that cheerleaders should be role models and leaders in their community.
