Lycée Français de Chicago

Lycée Français de Chicago, founded in 1995, is located in one of Chicago's most established residential neighborhoods along Lake Michigan. It provides an ideal educational setting as well as easy access for all our students.

The Lycée is a private, not-for-profit, co-educational day school serving students from prekindergarten through twelfth grade. Ours is a bilingual, bicultural learning environment in which students follow the complete French National Curriculum, which is directed by the French Ministry of Education. The curriculum is supplemented by a strong program of English language arts, American civics and American history. This intercultural curriculum prepares students for the French Baccalaureate examination.

The school is listed on the French Ministry of Education's official roster of French schools in foreign countries. Because of our affiliation with France, the Lycée is inspected regularly by the French Ministry of Education, which ensures a consistently high caliber of teaching and adherence to the French curriculum.

The Lycée makes its home in the landmark Immaculate High School building, located at Irving Park Road and Marine Drive. The building has been renovated with great attention, allowing the structure's impressive "sense of place" to emerge as an inspirational learning environment. The Lycée occupies 57,000 square feet within the building, including spacious, inviting classrooms, library, art room, gymnasium, science and computer laboratories, lunchroom.
