The Power Squad (formally known as the Spirit Squad) is Degrassi Community School's cheerleading team, which was founded by Paige Michalchuk, who was the captain until she graduated in 2006. She was followed by Darcy Edwards, with Manny Santos as choreographer and co-captain, until Darcy quit and was replaced by Manny. After Manny graduated, Holly J. Sinclair took over, and renamed it the "Power Squad." Holly J. later got taken off Power Squad for talking about Mia Jones's personal sex life on the news. Mia became captain shortly after, until she left for France in Season 9 and Trish became captain. In Season 10, Chantay Black became the new Power Squad Captain. In January 2011, Principal Simpson cancelled Power Squad due to concerns over the incident during Vegas Night, which prompted protest by some Power Squad members and members from other cancelled clubs. After Principal Simpson came to an agreement with Chantay, the Power Squad was allowed to resume its activities. The new captain is Marisol Lewis.

In the Degrassi webisode "Unstoppable," many of the Power Squad members become sick, so Chantay and Anya have to find people to fill in for them at the Ultimate Cheer Battle. They recruit Fiona, Clare, Bianca, and Holly J. At first, they have a tough time getting along, but eventually they pull through and probably win the competition, although the results are not announced.
