Aperçu des admissions
Bienvenue à la French American Academy !
Chères familles,
Un accueil chaleureux et sincère de la part du service des admissions de la French American Academy !
Merci d’avoir envisagé d’offrir à votre enfant (ou vos enfants) une éducation internationale au sein de notre école bilingue français-anglais du New Jersey.
À la French American Academy, vos enfants, nos élèves, évoluent dans un environnement international, au cœur d’une communauté riche de cultures, de langues, d’idées et de perspectives. Cette diversité les encourage à explorer le monde avec un regard global. Notre mission est de former des citoyens du monde, capables de relever les défis et de contribuer à construire un avenir meilleur. Nous visons à développer chez nos élèves le respect, la curiosité, la santé, la résilience et un leadership éclairé. Ils sont inspirés à cultiver un état d’esprit ouvert et une sagesse qui leur permettront de mener une vie épanouie, guidée par l’intégrité et le sens des responsabilités.
L’équipe des admissions de la FAA est à vos côtés pour vous accompagner dans cette étape importante qu’est le choix d’une école pour votre enfant. Cette section vous donnera toutes les informations pratiques relatives à notre processus d’admission.
Nous vous remercions de visiter notre site web et espérons avoir le plaisir de vous accueillir prochainement sur l’un de nos campus !
Avec toute notre considération,
Kalyana Maréchal, Ph.D
Directrice des Admissions
Lancement du Lycée ! Inscriptions ouvertes pour la 3ᵉ (Grade 9)
Le seul lycée IB Candidate de Jersey City
Nous avons le plaisir d’annoncer l’ouverture de notre Lycée et l’ouverture des inscriptions pour la classe de 3ᵉ (Grade 9). Notre Lycée accueille des élèves de tous niveaux en français : aussi bien ceux qui n’ont jamais étudié la langue que des locuteurs natifs.
La French American Academy est une école candidate* pour le Programme d’éducation intermédiaire (MYP). Elle poursuit actuellement la démarche d’autorisation pour devenir une école du monde IB. Ces écoles partagent une philosophie commune : un engagement envers une éducation internationale de haute qualité, exigeante et ouverte sur le monde, valeur essentielle à la FAA pour former ses élèves.
* Seules les écoles autorisées par l’Organisation du Baccalauréat International (IB) peuvent proposer l’un de ses quatre programmes académiques : le Programme primaire (PYP), le Programme d’éducation intermédiaire (MYP), le Programme du diplôme (DP) ou le Programme à orientation professionnelle (CP). Le statut de candidat ne garantit pas l’autorisation. Pour plus d’informations sur l’IB et ses programmes, veuillez consulter www.ibo.org.

Informations à connaître avant de s'inscrire
Cutoff Date - Dec. 31st
A la FAA, nous suivons la date de référence française du 31 décembre. Ainsi, les enfants nés après le mois d’octobre peuvent s’inscrire avec une année d’avance.
Âge Minimum
L’inscription à la French American Academy se fait au plus tôt à l’âge de 2 ans et 6 mois, en Toute Petite Section (Prek2).
Vous n'avez pas besoin de parler français pour vous inscrire
La connaissance du français n’est pas obligatoire pour entrer à l’école maternelle. A partir du CP, nous proposons un programme accéléré de français (AFP) pour les enfants n’ayant aucune connaissance préalable du français. Après 3 ans dans le programme AFP, les élèves rejoignent la filière bilingue.
La Propreté
Les enfants entrant en Petite Section (PreK3-4) doivent être formés à la propreté, ce qui n’est pas le cas pour la Toute Petite Section (PreK2).
Formulaire de recommandation et bulletin de notes
Nous demandons aux parents de nous fournir une recommandation de l’enseignant si l’élève a déjà été scolarisé dans un établissement scolaire ou une garderie. À partir du CP, nous demandons également les bulletins scolaires.
Procédure d'Application
Pour plus d’informations sur la procédure d’admission, veuillez consulter notre page Étapes pour s’Inscrire
2025-26
Nous acceptons actuellement les candidatures.
2026-27
Les candidatures ouvrent à l’été 2025.
Pourquoi la French American Academy?
✅ Un programme complet et équilibré
Nous allons au-delà des apprentissages académiques grâce à des voyages scolaires d’une nuit ou d’une semaine : dans le désert de l’Arizona, les lagunes de La Nouvelle-Orléans, les sites historiques du Québec, et bien plus encore !
✅ Axé sur les mathématiques et les sciences
Grâce à des enseignants spécialisés en STEM, à un club de mathématiques et à notre programme de mathématiques appliquées, nos élèves sont mis au défi de comprendre ce qui fait fonctionner le monde.
✅ Apprentissage structuré
Notre approche basée sur les projets incite les élèves à collaborer et à développer des solutions innovantes à des problèmes du monde réel.
✅ Une véritable éducation bilingue
Notre programme bilingue permet non seulement à nos élèves de parler, lire, écrire, compter et penser dans les deux langues, mais il leur donne également un avantage cognitif et culturel par rapport à leurs camarades monolingue.
✅ Des professeurs hautement qualifiés
Nos enseignants ont un minimum de 3+ années d’expérience, un diplôme de master. Tous nos enseignants Français sont diplomés du Ministère de l’Education Nationale. Tous nos enseignants des cours en Anglais sont de langue maternelle anglaise.
✅ Un enseignement accrédité
Notre accréditation par les autorités éducatives françaises et américaines démontre notre engagement à répondre aux normes les plus élevées en matière d’éducation française et américaine.

A special and sweet message from our young learners to our soon to graduate 5th graders! 🎓🥺
As our 5th-grade class prepares to leave elementary school behind and embark on their next big adventure, our Kindergartners wanted to share a few words of encouragement.
They put together a few special messages to wish the older kids the absolute best as they transition into Middle School next year!
From the PK2 sandbox to the High School hallways, our community is always cheering each other on.
We are so incredibly proud of you, 5th graders, and we know you are going to do amazing things in 6th grade and beyond!
Good luck! 💙🎓

Dive into the magic of bilingual learning! ✨
Today, we are stepping into our Kindergarten classroom for a special look at a co-taught Bilingual Comparative Grammar class with Chloe and Klarrizze!
But what exactly is comparative grammar, especially for our youngest learners? 🤔
In a bilingual setting, comparative grammar means looking at French and English side-by-side using a color and shape code.
Instead of learning each language in total isolation, students are guided to actively notice the similarities and differences between the two.
For example, they might discover how word order changes (like saying "the blue car" in English vs. "la voiture bleue" in French) or spot words that share similar sounds and meanings as well as understand feminine and masculine.
By comparing the rules and patterns of both languages, our Kindergarteners develop a much deeper understanding of how language works.
It boosts their cognitive flexibility, strengthens their problem-solving skills, and helps them become more confident, fluent bilingual speakers! 🧠💡
With Chloe and Klarrizze teaming up, our students get the absolute best of both worlds in one dynamic, seamless, and fun lesson.
Bravo to our little linguists! 💙🌎

Our 9th-grade Job Shadowing Week over! 🏢💼
Our team stopped by to visit some of our students in action, and we are so impressed by the real-world skills they are already gaining!
Take Samir, for example!
He is spending his week at Hair is Happiness. His host shared that he has been incredibly engaged, in just two days, he learned what it takes to build a business from the ground up, studied color theory, and even got hands-on experience by completing his very first haircut! ✂️👏
Meanwhile, our other 9th graders are diving into a wide range of exciting industries across NJ and NYC.
From culinary arts, fashion, and retail, to local non-profits and international diplomacy at the French Consulate, they are learning from the best!
A massive THANK YOU to all of our amazing host partners for opening your doors and sharing your expertise with our students.

Storytime just got a whole lot more interactive! 🥢📖
We had the absolute pleasure of welcoming children`s author Anna Park to our Englewood campus for a very special visit!
Anna read her wonderful book, Nabi Tries Chopsticks, to our students, but the fun didn`t stop at the final page.
The children also participated in a hands-on chopstick training session and even learned a catchy song to help them master the technique!
To top it all off, every student received their very own chopstick trainer as a special gift from Anna so they can keep practicing at home.
Thank you, Anna, for such a memorable, engaging, and delicious learning experience! ✨
