Parent Experience

History
Foundation and reach of the Antonin Order. The Antonin Fathers' activity in Lebanon began in the Kesrouan region in the 18th century, with monks sent to Monastery Mar Chaaya to live under cenobitic rules. Additional Fathers joined, and the leadership of successive Patriarchs of Antioch confirmed their vows and statutes. The Order expanded widely in Kesrouan, establishing monasteries in Ghazir (Mar Elias), Ain Chqayq, Notre-Dame de Bkerké, Antélias, and Ehden (Mar Sarkis). In the 1730s, efforts to align with Rome led to papal confirmation of their statutes after a Lebanese synod in 1736.

Community
The college has active committees and clubs, including the Alumni Association, Scouts, Association Amis Du Collège, Antonin Sports Club, and School Sports, plus the Parents Committee. The Parents Committee is elected for a three-year term. The Events section shows activities such as author visits and pedagogical training, and the site features a page welcoming the kindergarten, Bienvenue à la Maternelle.
