LOVE, SERVE, CARE

The purpose of the Highlighters Drill Team is to encourage quality performance, academic standards, loyal school spirit, and high personal values among its members. Through the development of dance technique, leadership, cooperation, self-discipline and sportsmanship in each individual member, the Highlighters will fulfill this purpose for University School and the community of the Waco Independent School District.

The Highlighters Dance Team is a year-round program with many fun and exciting opportunities. The Highlighters perform at high school football games during halftime and in the stands.  They also perform at student pep rallies, community events, and Waco parades.
 
Tryouts for the Highlighters Drill Team are held in late Spring for the upcoming academic school year. Being a member of the UHS Highlighters is a great opportunity to learn responsibility, self-discipline, and being part of a team. The endurance, persistence, and fortitude the girls learn while on the Highlighters will serve them well as they meet the demands of their futures in college and beyond.
