Coach Katie Armstrong

The CHS Athletic Department is thrilled to announce the hiring of Katie Armstrong as our new Head Cheer Coach.  Armstrong- who had served as a Bulldog assistant coach back in 2018-19, comes back to CHS after an impressive coaching stint at UMASS Boston, where she has built a strong program. 

Katie has years of coaching experience at the youth, All-Star, high school and collegiate level. She has worked with many programs and age groups giving her a rich coaching background. She currently works as an admissions counselor at UMASS Boston. In her free time she enjoys lifting at the gym and spending time with her family. 

She had this to say upon the announcement of her hiring-

"I am so grateful to be the new head cheerleading coach at Canton High School. I bring years of experience in the cheerleading industry and am excited to take on this new role. As a coach, cheerleading is not only about building character and confidence, but instilling the values of discipline, teamwork and sportsmanship within our athletes."

We wish coach Armstrong luck as she begins this new chapter at CHS.
