"I am happy to be working at a school that values education, hard work, and academic/personal integrity."

"LGHS has options for everyone, whether it be an athlete, musician, or mainly academic student. There is a place for all students here, and I value that."

"The level of academics and extracurricular really make me proud to be a SHS Falcon. My fellow classmates and teachers are another reason I'm proud to be a SHS Falcon."

"The school spirit is amazing. The staff is so supportive and caring to each other and the students."

"I’m so grateful for the opportunities I have gained from my time at SHS, along with my teachers and fellow classmates who have made my high school experience great."

"As a former student and now a teacher at LGHS, I am proud of the community and the students drive to succeed. Day in and day out, the students are the ones that make this campus a special place and it shows in their work in and out of the classroom."

Matthew Hardiman

"I love the energy of working in high schools, and watching students develop into bright, independent thinking adults.  LGSUHSD is a special place, and I am grateful to have joined the team!"

"The teachers at LGHS are always very dedicated and passionate about teaching their subjects and always go above and beyond to ensure every student succeeds. I am also proud to be a Wildcat because our school provides a strong sense of community and respect with many small clubs and organizations, school events, and opportunities to get involved and connect with others."

" The students and staff at SHS are AMAZING. I have five wonderful classes of Honors Chemistry students. I love teaching sophomores because I get to help them transition from 9th graders to 11th graders. The growth they experience during this year is monumental. My students are so polite, too - they say "thank you" even when I hand them a test! I love the teachers I work with as well. Some of the hardest working and dedicated staff I've ever met."

Kathy Nakamatsu
Teacher, Saratoga HS

"The staff at LGHS truly care about our students. It is wonderful to work with these amazing people. My two sons are currently attending LGHS and it is such a special opportunity to be here and a part of their journey."
