Our Mission
As a bilingual and international school, we are dedicated to providing students of various backgrounds with a very high standard of bilingual French and American education, by teaching international learners and thinkers who will become exceptional modern citizens.
​
Our students are encouraged and motivated to excel academically, understanding what it means to be proud of their achievements. For our students to foster an atmosphere of community, we encourage self-exploration so they can discover their true talents, interests, and develop values of integrity, responsibility, and cooperation that will make their communities stronger.
​
Our Preschool and Elementary School Programs are accredited by the French Ministry of Education, AEFE network, and the AISF, Association of Independent Schools of Florida.

We are Non-Profit
We are a Non-Profit School operating entirely on private funds, donations, and tuitions.
We care About Our Planet
Because there is only one home for us.
As part of our philosophy, we believe in the importance of awareness about environmental issues that affect our planet and all living beings that belong to The Earth.
​
In an effort for contributing to our planet conservation, we are minimizing the unnecessary printing of paper copies.
Therefore, our forms are now all digitalized and we are also implementing digital formats for some evaluations and practice activities that children complete in school and as homework.
​
We value any recycling initiatives, for this reason, we also have planned some activities related to this important matter that is part of our responsibilities as citizens of the world.
