We all know the life long memories that Lotus Preschool has given our children. Whether it be learning about Japanese heritage, the San Jose Japantown community surrounding the preschool or building lifelong friendships (both children and parents), it is a unique experience that Lotus families can attest to. In order to allow future generations (your grandchildren and even great grandchildren) to experience this one of a kind preschool, we hope to unite as a community and help the SJBCB achieve its goal.
