Britney Allen is living a "dream life" as the cheerleading captain and girlfriend of Brad Warner, the star quarterback of Pacific Vista High School. Her frenemy is the highly ambitious Winnie Harper, another member of the squad. Her life changes dramatically when her father loses his job, and the family must relocate to the disadvantaged city, Crenshaw Heights, which Britney, being the "white girl", takes quite a while to adjust to.
She meets Camille, cheerleading captain of the Crenshaw Heights Warriors and her friends and fellow cheerleaders, Kirresha and Leti. She also meets Jesse, a male cheerleader and the only person who is nice to her on her first day. Britney, at the urging of Winnie, has already vowed to never cheer for another team (as this would make her a "cheer whore"), but after being dared by Camille and Jesse to show up at the cheerleading tryouts, Britney impresses everyone with her skills and experience. Camille, after being persuaded by her friends to "do it for the squad", reluctantly lets her in. Britney and Jesse become close and eventually kiss.
