Notre-Dame International High School has been officially launched in Paris at the end of March 2010

April 28, 2010 - PRLog -- The official opening of the new American school “Notre-Dame International High School” was sealed late March by Dr Frank Tarsitano, PhD President of Nacel Open Door and Yves Le Saout, Principal of Notre-Dame Les Oiseaux. Danièle Thevenin, Deputy Head, Steve Murphy, Director of the American school and Gerard Avundo, Director of Nacel Programs also attended the meeting. Official signatures will be organized during the international school meeting which will take place at St Paul Preparatory School, in St Paul, Minnesota, at the beginning of May.

This international boarding school is located very close to Paris, on a safe and wonderful campus. The asset and originality of Notre-Dame International High School rely on the fact that it combines an American curriculum leading to the US High School Diploma with the French environment of the sister school Notre-Dame Les Oiseaux, a French school that provides excellent education for many years now. This combination makes the school bilingual and bicultural. Students from grades 9 to 12 will indeed have the unique opportunity to become proficient in both languages, English and French, and interculturally skilled.

The strong multicultural student body of this American High School in Paris is also an asset. Notre-Dame International High School will welcome students coming from many different countries: some of them are from Brazil, Ukraine, the Philippines, the USA, Germany, China, Korea etc.… Students will come from all continents! This English school in Paris is a good example of cultural diversity; attending school all together will enable students to learn a lot from each other’s points of view and habits and then become more tolerant and aware of cultural differences.

This bilingual school in Paris is due to open early September 2010 as planned. International parents and students interested in taking part in this international project may visit Notre-Dame International High School’s website: http://www.nisparis.com for further information and contact.  Students joining Notre-Dame International High School this coming September will experience a challenging educational experience.
