Mission Statement & Philosophy: • The Olympia High School Drill Team serves the student body of Olympia High School and the community of Olympia by promoting school spirit and supporting all athletic teams and activities. Involvement in the team will develop leadership, self-confidence, respect, teamwork, accountability, and commitment. Striving to build the team as well as individual skills is a goal for everyone. • Being a member of the Olympia High School Drill Team is a privilege and honor. Taking pride in performing routines and positively supporting school activities and school sponsored community events is important. Working for the highest standards while developing work ethic is expected of all team members. Teamwork, integrity, open communication, optimism and mutual respect is valued.

  4. Purpose: • Positively represent OHS in leadership, sportsmanship, and athletics at all times. • Perform at assemblies, half time shows, community events, and competitions.

  5. Drill Team Seasons: • We are a Fall and Winter Season sport. • Fall season is primarily dedicated to the support of the OHS Football team, and related school activities to engender spirited support for the team. • Winter season is two fold. We support OHS Boy’s and Girl’s Basketball Teams. We also endeavor to compete. This would be considered our competitive season. • If a girl wishes to be a part of the Winter Competitive Season they must be a member in good standing from Fall Season.
