Shaping Today's Students, Molding Tomorrow's Leaders

Lycée Français de New York

Founded in 1935 by Charles de Ferry de Fontnouvelle, the Consul General of France in New York, the Lycée Français de New York began as a high school for 24 students housed in a small basement. In the decades since, the Lycée Français de New York has grown into a renowned institution that has educated nearly 35,000 students representing 150 nationalities.

The educational journey at the Lycée begins with a nursery program and continues through 12th grade, and students undergo a rigorous, bilingual curriculum, with upper school students intensely preparing for a baccalaureate program in French. This interdisciplinary academic model is paired with athletics, community service learning, and extracurricular clubs in the arts, computer programming, government, and engineering. The vision of the Lycée's founder was that "a school should be more than simply a provider of intellectual nourishment," and it is with this philosophy that the school approaches the task of molding students for the complexities of the 21st-century world.
