Almaden Times: San Jose Chinese School Celebrates Year of the Horse

On Feb. 1, the second day of the Chinese New Year, Councilmembers Johnny Khamis and Sam Liccardo joined San Jose Chinese School’s students and parents to celebrate the Year of the Horse at the Leland High campus.

The event started with the school’s long-standing tradition of a dragon parade after which students were invited to greet the crowd with lucky sayings on stage. Student performances were the highlight of the day, with musical instrument performances, dancing, and singing that captivated the audience.

This is the 40th year of San Jose Chinese School (SJCS) serving the South San Jose area. SJCS provides quality Chinese language and cultural education with total immersion and Chinese as a Second Language classes for kindergartner through 12th-grade students.

Additionally, the school offers a wide range of extra-curricular classes and cultural activities for students and parents to further foster the community at large.
