Overview
The French American Academy is a renowned international school with two campuses. It offers high-quality bilingual education from preschool to 9th grade.
Accredited by both French and American educational authorities, FAA offers a child-centered environment that uses the dual lenses of French and English. As a result, the curriculum inspires and cultivates open-mindedness, empathy, and a lifetime love of learning.
FAA's bilingual education goes beyond fluency; it is about challenging students through language.
The native French and American teachers create a nurturing yet challenging environment that encourages students to flourish intellectually, emotionally, and ethically.
Students are also immersed in a rich, multilingual, and multicultural environment, giving them a unique and valuable learning experience. Students with no prior French are welcomed.
In 2006 when Hamilton Park Montessori School opened the doors of its two early childhood classrooms, it committed to a whole-child approach to education- one that meets the social, emotional, cognitive and physical needs of each child.
Now, well into our expansion into Middle School, we continue to nurture each child`s love of learning.
As educators, we believe that our job rests solely in ensuring that each child has the opportunity to grow into a capable, confident and compassionate citizen of the world.
To this end, we have an incredibly talented, educated, and passionate group of teachers who work tirelessly to create beautiful, developmentally appropriate environments.
We also have an amazing community of parents whose gracious support and commitment are without equal.
Come visit us and see how our authentic Montessori environment sparks children`s innate love of learning.
