The École New York is a bilingual French-American school located in Manhattan's Flatiron District, serving students from Pre-Nursery through 8th Grade, with a dedicated high school track in partnership with Léman Manhattan. The school integrates the French National Curriculum with an inquiry-based American system, where native-speaking faculty teach core subjects like math, science, and humanities in both French and English. A unique hallmark of the Middle School experience is the "World of Work" (WoW) initiative, which connects 8th-grade students with professionals from diverse fields—such as UN advisors, perfumers, and journalists—to explore career paths and personal values. For outdoor activity, the school utilizes a rooftop playground at its Maternelle campus and daily closes East 22nd Street to create a safe "Open Street" for Elementary and Middle School play. Students also begin learning Spanish or Mandarin in 3rd Grade, further expanding their multicultural perspective and communication skills.
