First founded in 1995 by a small group of French and American families, the Lycée began as an international school of fewer than 150 students. Twenty-five years later, our community has grown dramatically, attracting families from around the world who share the value of an academically challenging and culturally diverse education. Families find a second home at the Lycée because of our commitment to a world-class education and fluency in respect, responsibility, and the joy of learning. Today, the Lycée is Chicago’s premier international education community, consisting of nearly 500 families and more than 730 students.
