A trilingual pathway, the Section Internationale Américaine (SIA), leads to the BFI American track, with some English-language instruction in 2nde. The Section Européenne anglaise is planned to begin in fall 2025. Official pathways include Parcours Avenir, Parcours d'éducation artistique et culturelle, Parcours éducatif de santé, and Parcours citoyen. The campus serves maternelle through terminale and supports extensive after-school activities and eco-responsibility initiatives. The school welcomes families worldwide today.
