What is Grad Night?
Grad Night is a 37-year Los Gatos High School tradition that is 100% parent-organized, funded, and executed. This treasured event, hosted on the LGHS campus, provides our seniors with a safe and memorable graduation celebration filled with games, entertainment, music, dancing, food, and more! It’s an all-night party that begins on Friday, June 7, at 10:30 p.m. and lasts until Saturday morning at 6:00 a.m. All details of Grad Night are kept a secret from our seniors so that we can surprise and delight them with a truly exceptional extravaganza!
