| Bernheim
Middle School has several options for involving students in athletics:
basketball,
cheerleading, and
track.

Basketball
Basketball
is one of the most popular extra-curricular offerings at Bernheim Middle
School for both boys and girls. As many as 60 boys regularly try-out for
a spot on the 25 man roster, while as many as 40 girls try for a place
on a 20 person roster. The school has two teams for each, a "B" Team, consisting
of 6th and 7th grade students and an "A" team, consisting of 8th grade
students.
To participate
in basketball, students must maintain passing grades, have a current physical
on file, and follow all school rules.
Bernheim
is a member of a conference league comprised of middle schools from Bullitt,
Nelson and Spencer Counties. The teams usually play about 15 games a season,
plus one or two tournaments.
Bernheim's boys
team was county champions in the 93-94 school year and has finished in second
place in the county on two other occasions. Our girls' team was county champions
in 2001.
Cheerleading
Bernheim
Middle is enthusiastic and proud of its co-educational cheerleading squad.
The squad regularly numbers between 11 to 14 students from the 6th, 7th
and 8th grades. It cheers at both boys' and girls' basketball games throughout
the season.
To participate
as a cheerleader representing Bernheim Middle School, a student must exhibit
the vital attributes of school spirit and good sportsmanship, both at home
and away as a visitor at other schools. Attendance at both games and practices
is a must in order to remain active on the cheerleading squad. Students
must maintain passing grades, have a current physical on file, and follow
all school rules.
