Back-to-school 2003 marked a turning point with the opening of a 158,000-square-foot facility that unified the Lycée Français de New York's campuses on a single site. The York Wing extension added 20,000 square feet of digitally-enabled flexible classrooms to support collaborative teaching and learning. The campus includes a 354-seat auditorium that hosts performances and the Cultural Center, a 225-seat cafeteria with a full-service kitchen, and a rooftop playground for elementary students. A digital media lab with a TV studio, production booth and editing bays, plus a makerspace with a digital printer, support hands-on learning and creative exploration.
There are two gymnasiums totaling more than 12,000 square feet with two regulation basketball courts. The athletic facilities support activities such as wall climbing, volleyball, soccer and gymnastics. A rooftop playground provides outdoor play space for elementary students. These spaces enable a broad athletic program across grade levels.
The main building houses pre-kindergarten through 12th grade in a 158,000-square-foot facility with specialty classrooms, learning labs and studios for project-based learning. The York Wing adds 20,000 square feet of digitally-enabled flexible classrooms for collaborative teaching and learning.
