Recent ActivityThe goal of the JBS Gay/Straight Alliance is to insure a safe learning school environment for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered (LGBT) students, free of mocking taunts, physical intimidation, and other forms of discrimination that would obstruct a student's ability to focus on his or her studies. Because of the nature and progressive philosophy of our school, which "promotes an atmosphere of understanding, trust, [and] respect," and because "[w]e embrace democratic ideals" and "value and celebrate" diversity, great strides have been made for various minorities within this institution. Many of us chose to come to this school for the sake of the very ideals expressed in our school's mission statement. The club does not advocate a particular lifestyle; we welcome all members of the JBS student body. Along with Diversity, ETC., Montgomery Plan, Amnesty International, and other such clubs, we work for human rights and social justice.
