    Schools in Los Gatos and Saratoga represent how these communities differ from the county they call home


    Los Gatos and Saratoga are part of Santa Clara County, but the numbers from the recently released U.S. Census 2000 show pronounced differences in the ethnic makeup between these communities and their environs. Los Gatos and Saratoga deviate from the trend that shows an emerging ethnic diversity in the county, which is less than 50 percent white. Still, Los Gatos and Saratoga, which the census found to be 83 and 65 percent white, respectively, have undergone a dramatic racial shift in the past decade. Nowhere is that shift more evident than in the local schools, especially in the high school district that bridges both communities.   More
