Founded by parents in 1967, the Lycee Francais La Perouse is an academic institution accredited by the State of California and the French Ministry of Education. It belongs to a network of over 400 French schools worldwide and receives substantial financial support from the French Government. The Lycee offers a preschool through 12th grade education to French, American and students of other cultures.
The Lycee is an American private school with a French public school curriculum. Lycee Francais La Perouse is run by the parents, with financial responsibility residing in the Board of Directors, elected from among parents and other community leaders. Pedagogical direction, however, is provided by the Agence pour l'Enseignement Francais a l'Etranger (Agency for International French Education) under the guidance of the French Ministry of Education.
Our mission is unique, as is the cultural diversity of our student population. This produces a blend of structures and traditions particular to our school.
