"The Los Gatos chapter of the Kiwanis, a global organization of volunteers, was established over 100 years ago. Local Kiwanians organize events like the Hippity Hop Easter Egg Hunt; Kiwanis Special Games; monthly trail cleanups; backpack, clothing and holiday drives; scholarship and awards ceremonies; student leadership programs; and the Holiday Market. Their signature event is the Los Gatos Art and Wine Festival in September."
"Club members say one of the best things about joining the Kiwanis is that nothing is mandatory, including the club's four monthly meetings. These meetings include speakers, action meetings to discuss upcoming events and one evening social event."
"Perrotti has served LGHS in multiple roles for almost two decades, including as a special education teacher and wrestling coach, and has been the school's athletic director since 2017, transitioning the position to full time in 2022. Under his leadership, athletic participation at LGHS has grown year over year, including the addition of competitive cheer and girls flag football."
