A small school house was built, but was destroyed by a fire in 1874. A new school was built in 1875 on University Avenue. Due to increased enroll- ment, an addition was built in 18813 school opened with two rooms and 98 students. ln 1886 it was discovered that two rooms could not meet the demand, so the school broke down into an elementary school and Los Gatos Central School. Many universities were well established, and the people of Los Gatos recognized the need for a high school to improve the students' chances of getting into a collegeg so, in the autumn of 1887 Los Gatos had its Hrst high school, which remained with the elementary school. Henry Meade, a young man of 24 who graduated from University of the Pacihc with a l32 T Freshmen Bachelor of Arts, became the first high school principal in Los Gatos. The enrollment grew and a vote was taken to build a separate high school on University Avenue. The election was unanimous and the building of the school was begun on October 31, 18933 the expense was 55,919.00 The building was finished in 1894, and on Septem- ber 3rd, 1894, the students entered the new school. The school offered an expanded pro- gram which included Latin for the first time. Those early graduating classes did not have many school activities. They participated in a few sporting events with neighboring schools, and had picnics on nearby mountains. The first graduating class from Los Gatos High was in 1896. The class of '97 honored the gradu- ates with a party. They hoped it would become a tradition. As it turned out that was probably the fore-runner of our senior ball. ln 1897 enrollment decreased due to the Alaska-Klondike gold rush. Many families packed up their belongings and headed north in search of gold. Then in 1901 the school was closed from April 10 to April 21 due to an outbreak of small pox. Afterwards the commu- nity began to thrive, and once again more space in the schools was needed. ln 1906 a meeting was held and the town committee voted and approved the building of a new school. ln 1908 Los Gatos High opened at its present location on Main St. Students begani to get very involved with school activitiesg many clubs and sports were introduced. There was more variety in the curriculum, hot lunch- es were served, and dances were held. ln 1926 a gymnasium was built and the track began to take shape. ln 1928 the school colors were changed from red and white to orange and black. The school newspaper, the El Gato, was published first in 1930, and the football field and baseball diamond were built. ln 1956i the pools and adjoining locker room were built. l Since then many other buildings have been l i added, including the art building and the math portables. Few of the original buildings remain since most of them have been torn down to make way for more modern buildings! l Through the years Los Gatos has taken pride? in their town and their schools. Los Gatos High showed this pride in its beauty and its students. i I r V. T lil
