With campuses located in Westchester County, New York, FASNY is just 20 miles north of Manhattan (35 minutes from Grand Central Station by train) and 9 miles south of Greenwich, Connecticut. FASNY develops globally literate, multicultural lifelong learners through a unique program that integrates French, American and International curricula. It is the only school in the New York metropolitan area to be accredited to offer both the International Baccalaureate and the French Baccalaureate. The school boasts a bilingual immersion program in Nursery (3 years old) through Kindergarten, bringing children of all cultural and linguistic backgrounds to academic fluency in French and English. In grades 1 through 10, students follow a rigorous bilingual program which combines and exceeds the standards of official French and best-in-class American curricula. In grades 11 and 12, students have the option to take either the International Diploma Programme track taught in English or bilingually, or to continue with the French Baccalaureate track taught in French or bilingually. Arts, Music and Athletics programs along with many clubs ensure a well-rounded education and encourage leadership. The community of teachers and students represents over 50 nationalities, and the fabric of the school is one of tolerance, acceptance, and appreciation of diversity. French and American school life traditions are mixed, creating a warm and engaging experience for the students. A strong Community Service program, educational trips in North and South America and Europe, and a team of counselors who interact daily with the students all contribute to the development of balanced and caring individuals. FASNY's mission to educate internationally minded students occurs within the context of a track record of academic excellence. Its average SAT scores are well above the national and independent schools average, and its French Baccalaureate results places it at the top of the French-American schools in North America. Each year FASNY sends students to top colleges and universities. Its acceptance list is disproportionately skewed to the finest institutions throughout the world, and includes: Columbia, Harvard, MIT, Princeton, Stanford, and Yale in the United States, and Cambridge, Imperial College, LSE, Oxford, and UCL in the United Kingdom. Many students also choose to study in Canada, in France's best universities and Grandes Ecoles, and in other fine European institutions.
