An International Education That Strengthens the Brain

Did you know learning two languages gives children a cognitive advantage over those who learn in just one?

There are years of research showing that bilingual children develop stronger attention, better memory, and more advanced problem-solving skills.

So why not give your child this lifelong gift? It builds both a stronger brain and a broader perspective.

 

The Bilingual Difference

Kindergarteners naturally absorb French and English through daily activities, and social interactions. Research shows that bilingual children develop stronger problem-solving, memory, and communication skills, benefits that last a lifetime.

A Strong Academic Foundation

Our Kindergarten program combines language, math, science, STEM, and the arts through engaging, hands-on, bilingual, and project-based learning, making education fun and interactive.

Small Class Sizes & Caring Teachers

With low student-to-teacher ratios, every child gets the individualized attention they need to grow academically, socially, and emotionally. Our bilingual educators create a safe and joyful learning space where every child feels valued.

A School That Grows With Your Child

Our Kindergarten is part of a comprehensive PreK2 – Grade 12 program, allowing for a seamless transition into elementary school. FAA students continue their bilingual journey while strengthening their academic skills in a familiar, supportive setting.

Discover What Sets the French American Academy Apart

"We don’t speak French at home, but within a month, my daughter was already singing in French. The small class sizes, structured play, and supportive teachers make all the difference. Here, she’s seen, heard, and truly thriving."
