My Project

Have you heard of One Team, One Sound. BHS Elite Steppers is a small step team that is comprised of 5 girls. These girls bring flare, energy, school spirit through stomp!

BHS Elite show their character, talent, drive, and dedication through step, precision, and teamwork.

They make certain that everything from what they wear to their grades are top par; ELITE. They practice twice a week so that they are ready to demonstrate what they have and leave it on the floor.

The jerseys and sneakers will be added to their uniform so they can all be on one accord. Unfortunately, they do not have school funds to assist with the cost for their uniforms. Help my team continue to look the part by contributing to this project.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
