CONNECT kids learn cheerleading

Highland Falls Intermediate School’s CONNECT kids take a variety of classes in their afterschool program — math & English, for instance are mandatory. But they also get to choose fun, active activities – like cheerleading! Here, the first semester of school’s cheerleaders performed for their parents and friends last week as the first semester of school wrapped up. CONNECT is provided free of charge to local second to sixth grade students via the West Point Association of Graduates. (From the News of the Hudson Highlands)
