Amazing staff! Students are set-up to succeed when entering AL. If ware looking for an Elementary school that allows your child to learn, meet a diverse population, become more cultured, and have fun. This is a school the provides that and so much more.
If setting your child(ren) up for real academic and future life success is important to you, in conjunction with the world-expanding benefits of becoming fluent in multiple languages, AL should be a top consideration.
I would say the parent/guardian community at Académie Lafayette is something that sets it apart, and is perhaps one of the school's greatest assets. From the first day of starting at AL, I felt included and welcomed as a single parent. It boasts many blended and traditional/non-traditional families across all socio-economic levels. I believe the unifying factor to student success is buy-in from families committed to the process, so to speak. The curriculum and 100% foreign language immersion will challenge all students and their families -- to incredible benefit to students/families who are involved (ie, in a position to be involved).

The school has been a good fit for our children. French immersion cannot be compared directly to a traditional elementary school. The kids may struggle with English a little early on, but it is amazing to watch the kids excel in foreign language development. They have had teachers from different countries every year (France, Belgium, and Cameroon to name a few) and get to experience many different views, cultures, and teaching methods. Many of the teachers are considered strict but we have found the teachers have all wanted the kids in their class to excel in all aspects of education, they care about their children, and provide meaningful feedback about the children's growth. Four years and two children into the school and we continue to feel we make a good choice for our children.
