A high-quality education requires more than the state provides.  Your donation to LGEF funds much needed supplemental teachers and staff for the children of Blossom Hill, Daves Avenue, Lexington, Louise Van Meter, and RJ Fisher schools.  See what LGEF funds.

Did you know that Los Gatos schools receive less per student from the state and federal government than other, similar districts? Donations from parents, community members and businesses to Los Gatos Education Foundation helps "fill the gap" by raising funds that help our schools educate the whole child.
