"I’ve heard people say, ‘you must deal with so many annoying people,’ when it’s actually a lot of fun," Alex said.
The fun doesn't have to stop after high school. Ever since Kenneth gave life to Bernie, he has been determined to continue being a mascot. In fact, it's become his career. “He was actually working with the NFL helping with Rampage the Ram and now he has been hired by the St. Louis Cardinals.

Some dancers and cheerleaders are frustrated with the lack of support they are given by the student body, even on social media.
“It’s hard sometimes when it comes time for us to go to a competition or nationals, we don’t even get a tweet from 6th Man or Blue Jay Athletics," Jaywalker Sarah Hoemann said, Jaywalker Campbell Hamai adds, “The dance team dedicates a large part of their lives to improve themselves as dancers and as supportive classmates.

Think about all of the work they put in behind the scenes. They would appreciate your support. |
