School Notes:

The Lycée International de Los Angeles (LILA) is a French American School.
The Los Feliz campus is the largest of the school's 4 campuses, and is the only one with a secondary school.
LILA's academic program from pre-school into high school is based on a bicultural program which results in a French Baccalaureat and/or an International Baccalaureate. Students are taught to speak, read, and write both French and English, but we aim to offer more than mere knowledge of the two languages. Our policy is one of integration: young Americans must be integrated into French classes and French children must study English along with their American classmates. Students of LILA become citizens of two worlds.
We believe in a humanistic approach to education, based on knowledge, skill, and reason across many fields.
We attempt to provide our students with a joy in learning that will carry through their entire lives.
Our curriculum is based on a combination of the rigor of the French educational system and the American value on individualism.
Our vision is to maintain an environment where the highest level of academic achievement is encouraged, where athletic skills are nurtured and developed, and at the same time where the original values of LILA's founders are given the highest priority: respect for people no matter where they come from, respect for the knowledge and wisdom of the past as well as the impact of the future, and respect for the world as a place worthy of preserving.
4 campuses: - Los Feliz - West Valley (Tarzana) - Pasadena - Orange (Santa Ana)
