Athletics

The Middle School Athletic Program is sponsored by the City of Palo Alto Recreation Department located at the Lucie Stern Community Center, 1305 Middlefield Rd., Palo Alto (map). It is designed to provide a positive athletic experience for 6th, 7th and 8th grade students. Skill evaluations at the beginning of each sport ensure that students play at the appropriate level for a constructive athletic experience. Registration fees are charged by the city; scholarship forms are available with the registration form. Questions? Call 650-463-4900
