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

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.
Dans les coulisses de la FAA
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! ✨

Did you know that Middle and High School students at The French American Academy have the opportunity to learn how to fly real airplanes? ✈️
Our first two FAA pilots are Jules and Giulio!
They started training on a Cessna flight simulator in January. Four months later, they’re taking flight lessons twice a month at Princeton Airport, on a pathway to earn their Private Pilot License at 17 years old.
It’s part of the new program The French American Academy launched with Flight & Aerospace Academy in Jersey City, where Middle and High School students train as pilots and drone engineers alongside their regular school day.
The French American Academy has been quietly building one of the most ambitious Middle School and High School programs in the area.
This is what mastery-based education actually looks like.

An unforgettable Canadian adventure for our 9th graders! 🇨🇦🚆
For their overnight field trip, our students embarked on an incredible journey right across the border.
Here is a look at their Canadian expedition:
🗣️ Diplomacy in Toronto: Students participated in a two-day Model United Nations (MUN) conference! They took on the role of delegates, representing different countries and voting on resolutions regarding important global issues!
🏒 Discovering Montreal: Another train ride and it was off to Montreal! The itinerary included a visit to the legendary Bell Centre (home of the Montreal Canadiens hockey team), exploring the massive underground city, and enjoying free time in the charming streets of Old Montreal to shop for the best souvenirs.
⛰️ Breathtaking Views: The group also hiked up Mount Royal. The challenging climb was totally worth it, rewarding them with a spectacular view of the city skyline at the top!
Our students returned tired but with heads full of memories and new diplomatic skills. Bravo to our young global citizens! 💙

Lights, camera, action for our 4th graders! 🎬🍿
To bring their in-class short movie project to life, our 4th-grade students took an exciting field trip to the Museum of the Moving Image in Queens!
It was an incredible day of discovering the magic behind the movies.
Here is what our young filmmakers explored:
🎞️ Cinema History: They journeyed through the fascinating history of cinema and the evolution of the moving image.
🎥 Behind the Scenes: Students got a crash course in the filmmaking process, diving into production, post-production, and special effects.
🌀 Hands-On Fun: Everyone even got to craft their very own thaumatrope, an early optical illusion toy!
We can`t wait to see how this trip inspires their own short films! 🌟
