A HOUSE RESOLUTION TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR THE CROSS SCHOOLS CHEERLEADING TEAM, COACHES, AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS FOR AN OUTSTANDING SEASON AND TO CONGRATULATE THEM FOR WINNING THE SOUTH CAROLINA INDEPENDENT SCHOOL ASSOCIATION 2024 JV CLASS 1A/2A GAME DAY EXPERIENCE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE.

Summary

House Resolution 3918 is a ceremonial resolution recognizing and honoring the Cross Schools cheerleading team, its coaches, and school officials for winning the South Carolina Independent School Association (SCISA) 2024 JV Class 1A/2A Game Day Experience state championship. The resolution notes that Cross Schools captured its third consecutive state title in the event, also winning in 2022 and 2023, and highlights the team’s performance at the November 16, 2024 competition held at Porter-Gaud School. The resolution also commends Head Coach Carolyn Marquez and her coaching staff for developing a championship-caliber team and for teaching life lessons through athletics. It concludes by directing that a copy of the resolution be presented to Middle/Upper School Principal Stacie Greene and Coach Marquez.

Impact

This resolution does not change state law, create new programs, or appropriate funds. Its legal effect is limited to formal legislative recognition of a private school athletic achievement and the presentation of the resolution to school officials. The only parties directly affected are Cross Schools, its cheerleading team, coaches, and administrators, who receive public acknowledgment from the House of Representatives.

Sentiment

The sentiment around the bill is entirely positive and celebratory. The resolution reflects unanimous praise for the team’s repeated success, the coaching staff’s role, and the school’s achievement in SCISA competition. No votes, committee debate, or dissenting commentary are provided, and the bill appears to be noncontroversial.

Contention

There are no notable points of contention in the available materials. Because the measure is a congratulatory resolution rather than substantive legislation, it does not appear to raise policy disputes, fiscal concerns, or legal objections. The only substantive emphasis is on celebrating Cross Schools’ athletic accomplishment and recognizing the individuals involved.
