At French American International School and International High School, there is definitely a surrounding culture within the school since some students do come from their k-8 program. Overall, the school does prepare you for the Ib and college.

The COVID response of the school has been an unmitigated disaster: the school has seen 110 reported cases in 7 days in May and has neither communicated about it nor mandated or even recommended mask wearing for no clear reason. If you are concerned about your kids' health and safety, I would avoid this school.

Horrible. Don't send your child here if they have any learning disabilities. This school doesn't deserve them.And if you want your child to learn French, all the children speak English when interacting with one another. I think there should be higher French proficiency, more investment on different...

We have two children at FAIS and could not be more pleased. They both started in the pre-K program and within a year were speaking conversational French proficiently. We think the academics are top notch and we really love the diversity of the students. One thing that I think is exceptional at FAIS...
