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

Nous acceptons actuellement les candidatures.
2026-27

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
The final numbers are in: $23,334 raised! 🙌
Earlier this fall, FAA students laced up their sneakers for the Spirit Run. The challenge? Parents pledged a donation per lap, and our students took that challenge seriously!
To every parent who supported this (and paid for all those energetic laps!): Thank you.
We are proud to divide this amount evenly between two worthy causes. We are sending $11,667 to Konekte (@konekteprincetonhaiti) to support their vital work in education and community support in Haiti. 🇭🇹📚
We celebrated this achievement during a Thanksgiving lunch sponsored by our wonderful PTO, where students learned exactly how far this money will go to help those in need.
Great running, students! You proved that we can go further when we go together. 🏃♀️🏃♂️

Running for a cause! 🏃💨
We are thrilled to announce that our annual Spirit Run raised a grand total of $23,334!
We are splitting these funds equally between two incredible partners. That means we are donating $11,667 to the @georgiebadielfoundation!
A massive thank you to our parents who pledged "per lap." We know you didn`t know exactly what the final number would be, but your children ran their hearts out to make sure every dollar counted.
Your generosity is unmatched! 💙
We celebrated this success during our Thanksgiving lunches – where we were honored to welcome Georgie Badiel herself.
She shared moving stories about how these funds will provide access to clean drinking water and sanitation for communities in Burkina Faso.
To our students: Your sweat and hard work are changing lives. We are so proud of you! 🌍💧

What an incredible day at FAA! 🍂✨
Our hearts (and bellies!) are full after a busy, joyful day across our Englewood and Jersey City campuses.
We kicked things off this morning with a very special visit from the inspiring Georgie Badiel! She visited both Englewood and JC Downtown to meet our students, answer their insightful questions, and read her books to them. It was truly wonderful to see her connect with the children – stay tuned, because we have much more content from her visit coming soon! 📚🧡
Next, we celebrated the season of gratitude with a delicious Thanksgiving lunch. A massive thank you to our Englewood PTO and JC Downtown PTO for organizing such a beautiful feast. It was a true moment of togetherness, made even more special as the Heights campus students joined the Downtown campus to share the meal and Englewood had a cozy gathering in the library! 🦃🍂
In Englewood, the celebration continued with music and art! We were lucky to hear the 4th and 5th graders perform two beautiful songs they practiced for Choralis, filling the halls with melody.
Plus, the Englewood students have been working hard decorating their classroom doors for the holidays. We can’t wait to show you the final results! 🎶🎨
The holiday season is starting on such a high note. A huge shoutout to our amazing PTOs for their hard work and dedication. Keep an eye on our feed for some fun parent/PTO interviews coming up next! ❤️

Did You Know? What is Les Choralies?
It is a large-scale choral gathering that unites students from French-accredited schools across the New York/New Jersey area. The goal is to foster a sense of community among the schools through the universal language of music.
Students usually spend weeks practicing a shared repertoire of songs (often a mix of French variety, classical, and pop) so they can perform upon meeting at Baruch College.
We are so proud of our students! / Nous sommes très fiers de nos élèves!
