Bayshore School hosts UCA cheerleading camp to reduce costs for students

Bayshore students will soon have the opportunity to enhance their cheerleading skills at a local camp, following a decision made during the Board of Education meeting on May 20, 2025. The camp, organized by the Universal Cheerleaders Association (UCA), will take place from August 20 to 22, 2025, at the school’s facilities. This initiative will allow students to receive expert training at a significantly reduced cost of $240 per participant, compared to the $350 required for a similar camp in Pennsylvania.

The decision to host the camp locally was driven by the desire to provide accessible training for students aiming to compete at a national level in Florida. The camp will focus on teaching essential cheerleading skills and routines, preparing participants for upcoming competitions. All necessary equipment and facilities will be provided by the school, ensuring a smooth and effective training experience.

In addition to the cheerleading camp, the meeting highlighted the successful celebration of the Fifth Avenue School's International Night, which recently marked its tenth anniversary. This event has become a cornerstone of the school community, fostering cultural awareness and unity among students and families. The celebration featured performances from students representing various cultures, showcasing the diversity within the Bayshore community.

The Board of Education expressed gratitude for the efforts of staff and students in organizing such impactful events, emphasizing the importance of community engagement and cultural appreciation in the school district. As these initiatives unfold, they promise to enrich the educational experience for Bayshore students, promoting both athletic development and cultural understanding.
