When it’s time to leave The École, our high school placement coordinator ensures our students and their parents are well-informed and confident about the application process for their high school of choice. We take great pride in the acceptances of our alumni to-date. Their excellent academic performance at prestigious schools in New York City and abroad proves that our unique bilingual program prepares students to both flourish in and contribute to the world beyond The École.

Our High School program, developed in partnership with Léman Manhattan, is an extension of The École’s French-American dual curriculum and provides our students with a quasi-automatic enrolment pathway to one of the most reputable international schools in NYC, whose students are accepted into top-tier universities every year. Students enrolled in the program benefit from all the resources Léman has to offer, with the added advantage of electives taught in French by The École teachers in 9th and 10th Grade. In 11th and 12th Grade, the program transitions to a bilingual IB diploma program – one of the most robust college preparatory programs in the world.

The École Alumni: Beyond High School

In 2026, The École celebrated the 10th anniversary of its first 8th Grade graduating class and launched The École Alumni (TÉA), a growing community bringing together former students and their families.

In just ten years, our alumni have gone on to study at an impressive range of colleges and universities in the United States, France, and around the world—a reflection of the many different paths available to students after a bilingual education at The École.

Former students and families who would like to reconnect with The École and become part of The École Alumni community are invited to contact alumni@theEcole.org.
