From the earliest age, our students are immersed in a second language and in art, music, and movement. We know that by doing so, we develop students' self-expression and appreciation for other cultures.
We encourage students' innate curiosity to foster the joy of learning, and we nurture students' individual interests to grow their passions.
We strive to create a place where everyone feels they belong. We celebrate languages, cultures, and perspectives, and foster our students to become compassionate leaders in a multicultural world.
Who we are
Ecole Bilingue de la Nouvelle-Orléans is an independent, French-American school located in the heart of Uptown, New Orleans. We are a PK-8th grade school with programs beginning at 18 months.
The choice to embark on a bilingual education is a life-long gift to your child, providing them an opportunity to become a multilingual, global citizen. Founded in 1998, Ecole Bilingue has established a reputation for excellence in French-American education. Our students go on to their high school of choice rooted in the values of a multi-cultural education.
From the earliest age, we immerse language, music, art, and physical education in the curriculum to foster self-expression, and by doing so, our students gain the confidence to explore the world.
Our Mission
The mission of Ecole Bilingue is to develop globally literate students through a rigorous, bilingual French-American curriculum, set in a nurturing and multicultural community. We guide our students to excel academically, foster their curiosity, and prepare them to become creative and innovative contributors to the world.
