Located in New Orleans, Lycée Français International de la Louisiane is a free public charter school serving PreK-12 with two campuses: the Primary Campus at 721 St. Philip Street and the Secondary Campus at 1601 Leonidas Street. The school aligns to both the American state curriculum and the French national curriculum, enabling students to earn an American diploma and the French Baccalaureate. It operates within the AEFE network, reflecting its France-affiliated status and its emphasis on social diversity. Founded in 2011 in partnership with the Louisiana Department of Education, it follows Louisiana guidelines for the Elementary Campus while aligning with French standards, offering immersion within bilingual education. A Lafayette Campus is planned for Fall 2027 to extend the network. Global learning, travel, and cultural exchanges broaden horizons and prepare students for opportunities worldwide; the curriculum is organized into cycles that structure learning from early years through lycée for diverse futures.
