Why Are Palo Alto's Kids Killing Themselves?
Are there any jocks? Or, are all the kids only encouraged to worship academics?

There are lots of jocks in Palo Alto but all the jocks I knew when I went to Paly were also academic high achievers.

It's generally either-or. If you're a jock, you are not academic. The varsity teams are poor at my kids school because most kids in sports as freshman and sophomores drop out of the teams as juniors and seniors to focus more on academics.
The sports teams overall are weak.
