What is FASN?

Why join FASN?

•  To ensure that your children can continue following a significant portion of the French curriculum while benefiting from immersion in the American educational system. 
• To have access to high-quality French teachers, the vast majority of whom are graduates of the French Ministry of National Education. 
• To guarantee a demanding and recognized quality of education. (See the latest FASN inspection report by the MLF under the “Educational Team” tab.) 
• To have the opportunity to meet other families, as the student population has increased six fold over the past five years. 

Who is FASN for? 

FASN is open to both French and Francophone students. It is not exclusively for children of military families but is open to all.  

* For your information, for the 2024-2025 school year:  

• 75 % of children from military families of school age are enrolled at FASN.
• 25 % of students come from civilian families. 

How does it work?

Students from kindergarten to 12th grade attend American schools, fully immersed in the American curriculum. These schools make their classrooms available to French teachers, who teach their lessons before, during, or after the American school day.  

Common questions before enrolling:

• Is FASN a real “advantage” to ease the return to France?  
• Is the dual curriculum accessible to all types of students?
• Will my child experience the “American life” while attending FASN?
• Will my child learn English in the same way as other students? 

How is FASN financed? 

FASN is co-financed by both the parents of the students and the French Ministry of Armed Forces (EMA), which, in its commitment to improving the well-being of military families, initiated the project.
