Give Your Child the Advantage of a Multilingual, Global Education
From 18 months through 8th grade, San Diego French-American School (SDFAS) offers a unique bilingual education that combines the French and American educational system.
In our nurturing, multicultural community, students develop fluency in French and English, explore Spanish from Preschool through 8th grade, and build the confidence, curiosity, and critical-thinking skills needed to thrive in an interconnected world.
No French required.
Why Choose San Diego French-American School?
