School Notes
First founded in 1995 by a small group of French and American
families, the Lycee began as an international school of fewer than
150 students. Twenty years later, our community has grown
dramatically, attracting families from around the world who share
the value of an academically challenging and culturally diverse
education. Families find a second home at the Lycee because of our
commitment to a world-class education and fluency in respect,
responsibility, and the joy of learning. Today, the Lycee is
Chicago`s premier international education community, consisting of
nearly 500 families and more than 750 students. Our program is
based on the French National Curriculum combined with key American
building blocks. It offers students the best of both worlds. From
the extensive French curriculum - taught in French - students
become highly proficient critical thinkers by acquiring the
rigorous writing skills and broad academic knowledge necessary for
the French Baccalaureate. From our strong American program -
taught in English - students receive the academic preparation that
is sought by American colleges and universities.
From multicultural exposure, students gain valuable social and
communication skills, and become exceptionally open-minded. Taking
into account the richness, diversity, and challenges of this
dual-language system, students educated at the Lycee are
well-prepared to meet - and often exceed - the demands of the best
universities in France, Europe, and North America.
