The School Site Council was formed in 1980 to help ensure that campus-wide funding needs of Los Gatos High School are surveyed, assessed and appropriately addressed on an annual basis. The Council conducts needs assessment and funding activities using the current-year School Improvement Plan as its primary guideline. Since 1986, the School Improvement Plan has been an integral part of the School Based Program Coordination Plan for Los Gatos High School.

SSC Mission

The mission of SSC parallels the mission of Los Gatos High School. Thus, the Council’s needs assessment and funding activities seek to support a comprehensive high school at which all students shall graduate after pursuing a four-year program that maximizes their learning; nurtures their creativity and character; prepares them to think, communicate, and act effectively and ethically; and that readies them for an appropriate post secondary objective.
