Head of School's Message

Dear FAA Community,


In this October newsletter, you’ll find a glimpse of some of our cherished values: well-being and health ("un esprit sain dans un corps sain"), the joy and unity of our students supporting meaningful causes, the celebration of our rich cultural diversity through cuisine, and growth! Be sure to check out the renderings of our Future High School and discover our vision for an innovative learning environment.


We’re also excited to introduce a new format: you’ll now receive two newsletters each month! The end-of-month edition will focus on school life, academic achievements, and student projects. Mid-month, we’ll spotlight our vibrant community with features such as Teacher, Alumni, and Parent Spotlights.


Warm regards,

Anne-Sophie Gueguen,

Founder and Head of School

Running for a cause

Spirit Run Fundraiser – Running for a Cause

We hosted a Spirit Run, during which students ran laps to raise funds for both the Georgie Badiel Foundation and Konekte. The run fosters global citizenship, encouraging students to support other communities while promoting physical activity and endurance. Our goal is to collect $20,000 to help children and women in Haiti and Burkina Faso.
