MathCounts is a club that works to prepare for the MathCounts competition in<br />
February. Students work on challenging and complex problems, as they get ready for<br />
the sprint, target and team round <strong>of</strong> the competition. We look at many different<br />
areas <strong>of</strong> math including algebra, geometry, puzzles, and probability.<br />
If you are new to Palo Alto schools and would like to make new friends, join the<br />
Newcomer’s Club. The club is open to anyone, not only newcomers. You’re welcome to<br />
bring a friend whether the friend is new to Palo Alto or not. If you are not new to JLS<br />
and would like to meet some newcomers, join us. Bring your lunch; there will be games<br />
and snacks too.<br />
Students will learn about Robin Hood through films and stories and discuss the legend<br />
and the history.<br />
Get actively involved, playing soccer to promote teamwork, friendship, and<br />
sportsmanship. Students will improve their skills over the year. Boys, girls, and all<br />
newcomers welcome. We meet on the fields on Fridays at lunch and pick teams.<br />
Students will be able to watch cartoons starring their favorite superheroes like<br />
Superman, Batman, Spiderman, Wonder Woman (basically any hero).<br />
The tennis club is for tennis players <strong>of</strong> all skill levels to come out and play matches or<br />
participate in tennis clinics to help improve their skills.<br />
Take a mini-‐break from reality and enjoy your lunch while watching classic cartoons<br />
with your friends! Appreciate the early animation art form while meeting Tom and<br />
Jerry, Fred and Barney, and maybe even Popeye and Olive Oil! Room location alternates<br />
between Ms. Soong and Mrs. Constant.<br />
Need a break from sitting in class? Feel like chatting? Come and do both, walk and talk<br />
around the JLS athletic fields. Take a nice walk around the dirt track during lunch while<br />
hanging out and chatting with friends. This is a great way to meet new people and have<br />
fun too. Bring a friend!<br />
Coach Creighton's wrestling club is designed to introduce students to the sport <strong>of</strong><br />
wrestling. Activities will include basic techniques, conditioning, film study and<br />
meditation. The club is open to boys and girls.<br />
Students who enjoy doing things for other people and learning about people and<br />
cultures from other parts <strong>of</strong> the world should check out the YCS (Youth Community<br />
Service) club. We will help plan mini service projects and also have the opportunity to<br />
participate in a variety <strong>of</strong> community -‐minded events throughout the year.<br />
