LAF offers a tri-lingual program with English (70%), Spanish (18%), and French (12%). It is the only institution in Nuevo León with more than 40 years of experience teaching French from Nursery to 9th grade. The educational model uses advanced teaching methods with active student participation, guided by qualified teachers, and is based on a literacy program that develops students' abilities by integrating techniques from various pedagogical models to accelerate learning and improve discipline. The curriculum is aligned with international educational standards and emphasizes reading and writing; classes follow a mini-lesson structure: the teacher explains and models the concept, the student practices, and the teacher checks understanding, with the aim that students understand, speak, and write in three languages from a young age. Reading, writing, and mathematics are taught in English, Spanish, and French, supported by libraries (classroom libraries from 3rd to 9th grade with about 300 books per classroom) and digital platforms Raz-Kids, Achieve 3000, and Tumblebooks; the libraries are aligned to U.S. standards to support the reading program. The French program includes French Classes per Week: Nursery 5, Pre-K 5, Kindergarten 5, 1st–6th 4, 7th–9th 3; in August 2017, the school received the LABEL-IFAL Certification for language instruction.

The objective is to form upright people by instilling ethical and moral values, as well as motivating self-esteem, empathy, and mutual respect among the LAF community. To support values and community living among students, three programs were created: Super Kid (Kinder), Love and Friendship, and Social Service (Jr. High). Super Kid (Kinder) recognizes and makes each student feel special for a week, with the aim of integrating them, boosting self-esteem and mutual respect. Conscious Discipline is a socio-emotional program that teaches children how to regulate and manage their emotions to make better decisions and feel safe, developing seven skills including composure, empathy, and decision-making. Love and Friendship teaches a set of values such as empathy, responsibility, respect, positivity, generosity, creativity, love/friendship, honesty, humility and perseverance to foster harmony among students, staff, and the community, and awards an annual LAF Love and Friendship Diploma to outstanding students. Social Service organizes charitable visits to raise awareness about community needs and promote service, including ongoing collaborations with La Alianza Anticáncer Infantil and Fundación AMANEC.
