Clubs, activities, and opportunities to explore interests and passions

Cultural and Language

From preschool onward, all classes are taught in French. In primary, English is introduced, and in high school German is taught. The regularization program helps students strengthen French, and English in the Euro Section provides an internationally recognized certificate. Primary students undertake two domestic trips (CE1 and CM2); in secondary, there is a trip to Ottawa, Canada; in the first year of preparatory there is a linguistic and cultural trip to France; and for students in the European English section, there is a trip to Atlanta, United States.

Community and Service

The CFM Foundation is a nonprofit organization that serves as a link within the school community. Through educational, cultural, sports and social projects and events, donations are raised and are tax-deductible. Funds are allocated to various causes, such as support for families in difficult situations or financing educational trips for students who need them, among others.

Lifestyle and Wellbeing

The Personalized Program for high-performance student athletes (PPES) adapts school schedules to training and competitions to help athletes balance academics and sport. Atlas Academy is a pioneering program that lets students develop athletic talent with training from a professional football team, without compromising academic excellence. This exclusive initiative integrates discipline, holistic development, and international outlook, reinforcing a forward-looking educational approach.

The Lycée Français de Guadalajara delivers the French Ministry of Education curriculum for students aged 3 to 18 within an AEFE-affiliated, non-profit community. From maternelle through lycée, classes are conducted in French; English begins in primary and German in preparatory years. A regularisation program strengthens French, and the European English certificate is internationally recognized. The BAC is an international diploma opening doors to universities on five continents. The school maintains a multicultural identity, with a cross-border Franco-Mexican educational community and a 15-year project guiding students toward autonomy and critical thinking. The campus includes a nutritionist-supervised canteen blending French and Mexican cuisine, a school garden linked to Eco Franco, and three libraries (mediatheque, BCD, and CDI) serving different levels. Architecture emphasizes daylight and green spaces, with buildings designed by Alberto Kalach and colleagues around a guava tree. Activities include physical education, music courses, a Web Radio studio, and UNSS-coordinated after-school programs.
