The Lyce9e Frane7ais de Guadalajara provides dedicated spaces and services for all levels from preschool to lycée. A school canteen, overseen by a nutritionist, offers healthy, balanced meals with menus blending French and Mexican cuisines. A school garden provides ingredients for meals and is part of the Eco Franco program. Three libraries serve different levels: a mediathe8que in kindergarten, the primary library (BCD), and a CDI for collège/lyce9e and staff, which will become a Centre de connaissance et de culture (CCC); there is also a listening corner with a storytelling tipi. Medical services include a school doctor, a nutrition specialist, and inclusion professionals and psychologists. The architecture emphasizes eco-friendly design with extensive green spaces; the Lyce9e was designed by Alberto Kalach and Juan Palomar, the Maternelle by Tatiana Bilbao, and the buildings are arranged around a guava tree with interior patios that bring daylight.
Physical education is mandatory for all students and includes swimming, athletics, outdoor skating, and team sports. After-school activities such as climbing and dance workshops are organized in coordination with the UNSS. Daily physical activities (APQ) take place every day, inside or outside the classroom.
