text: if ur school has a dance team and cheerleading squad...would u consider them equal? this is more like ur opinion but i really wanna know if i m the one thinking wrong or people have an invalid argument. i am a 9th grade girl in high school & today was our pep rally. i m with a dance team...we are a club not school sponsored but student run. we were to perform and we did. but this one boy ruined our entire performance by jumping into our squads in the middle of performance. he didn't interrupt the groups that went before us but us.....he did it last year as well.  i wanna know just wats going through ur mind right not. should he be punished? did he insult us? are we not compatible to the cheerleaders? just because he's popular and an athlete we are also afraid he might not get punished severly enough.  who is wacked.....me or him? certainly this young man should suffer consequences for interrupting your performance. whether your performance is as a club or as an athletic team (as the cheer squad at your school), he has no right to disrupt the pep assembly in that manner.   yes, it was an insult to your group. yes, you are compatible/equal to the cheerleaders. many schools' dance teams started out as yours is doing: as an informal/intra-mural "club"/after-school activity and grew into a teacher/school-sponsored activity that is "legitimate" and eventually competes against other schools in inter-scholastic competition.   unfortunately, the punishment that he receives is not up to you and your group members. my suggestion to you would be to have your parents contact the administration and have them explain your and their frustration and disapoointment that another student would disrupt a performance of fellow students. the parents of the dance group  should also say that they expect some form of punishment that is somewhat severe for this young fellow since this is the second year in a row he has interrupted a pep rally. they should also emphasize how demoralizing it is for their daughters to have to experience this type of humiliation in front of the whole student body, when their daughters are trying to expose their fellow students to dance and rhythm.   you are not whacked -- he is!  good luck...
