✨Yesterday’s Lunar New Year celebrations!✨
Lunar New Year at FAA was more than just a celebration – it was a chance for our students to immerse themselves in traditions, learn something new, and share meaningful moments together. 🎇🏮
From crafting lanterns and writing their names in Cantonese to decorating their classrooms and dressing in red for good luck, they embraced the spirit of the holiday. One of our students, Alina, even shared her family’s traditions with her classmates, bringing traditional food and leading a special
presentation. 🇨🇳🧧
These experiences help our students see the world through different perspectives, fostering curiosity, understanding, and a sense of global community.🌏

Questions Fréquemment Posées.
L’apprentissage d’une deuxième langue ne signifie pas que le cerveau de l’enfant aura moins de place pour la première langue. En réalité, les recherches menées depuis les années 1980 montrent que l’apprentissage d’une deuxième langue stimule le développement du cerveau et améliore les compétences cognitives.
Notre accréditation auprès de la Middle States Association et de la New Jersey Association of Independent Schools garantit que notre programme d’études est conforme aux normes américaines du Common Core, en plus des normes rigoureuses de l’éducation française.
Votre enfant peut s’attendre à une transition en douceur vers une école américaine ou française grâce à notre accréditation par le ministère français de l’Éducation nationale et les autorités américaines (Middle State Association).
Notre programme est reconnu par toutes les écoles accréditées américaines et françaises, tant aux Etats-Unis qu’à l’étranger.
Les recherches suggèrent que l’exposition à plusieurs langues présente de nombreux avantages pour le développement cognitif et linguistique. Les enfants ont une capacité naturelle à apprendre les langues et sont souvent capables d’assimiler de nouvelles langues plus facilement que les adultes. Par conséquent, si votre enfant maîtrise déjà deux langues, l’apprentissage d’une troisième langue peut lui sembler plus naturel.
