French-American School

PRIVATE SCHOOL ROUNDUP:

Since its founding in 1980, FASNY has evolved from a two-teacher, 17-student nursery school into a thriving institution on three campuses accredited by the International Baccalaureate Organization, the New York State Department of Education, the New York State Association of Independent Schools (NYSAIS), and the French Ministry of National Education.

FASNY’s mission to educate internationally minded students occurs within the context of a track record of academic excellence. Students thrive in their studies after high school in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, and elsewhere in Europe.

Since granting its first French Baccalaureate degree in 2009, FASNY has each year achieved 100% success on the exam, with more than 90% of the students passing with honors. Colleges and universities on both sides of the Atlantic recognize and seek out graduates with a FASNY education, and the list of college acceptances is disproportionately skewed to the finest institutions in the world.

Eight hundred and fifty students, representing over 50 nationalities, belonging to four school divisions from Nursery through 12th grade, are prepared to receive both a FASNY high school diploma and either the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme or the French Baccalaureate.

The school offers non-French speakers two entry points into its multicultural community: in preschool (3 to 6 years old), where the double language immersion program brings children to bilingualism, and in 11th grade, where the IB track is uniquely tailored to blend rising bilingual FASNY students, local non-French speakers, and qualified international students.

FASNY’s PreK, Lower, and Upper Schools, are located, respectively, in the villages of Scarsdale, Larchmont, and Mamaroneck.
