The Lycée Français de San Francisco (LFSF), previously known as the Lycée Français La Pérouse,[1] is a private school in the San Francisco Bay Area. It welcomes students from preschool through middle, and high school grades. It has a primary campus and a secondary campus in San Francisco and a primary campus in Sausalito in Marin County.[2]

Their unique educational program is accredited by the French Ministry of Education and based on the French national curriculum. It has a challenging English program featuring American History, American and English Literature, and Visual Arts. The school prepares students to graduate with both their French Baccalauréat and the American High School diploma.

History

[edit]

The school was founded in 1967 by Claude Lambert and Claude Reboul[3] as Lycée Français la Pérouse and was originally a satellite campus of the French American International School. The French School of Marin merged with the LFSF in 1986.[2]

LFSF alumni include children of musicians, artists and actors, children of the ambassadorial and socialite scenes, as well as various members of European nobility,[citation needed] and there have been examples of extravagant donations to the school-including Picassos and Fabergé eggs. The school continually ranks among the best and hardest schools in the Lycée à l'Etranger system, with graduates attending Ivy leagues and Parisian prepas every year.[citation needed]
