Why choose a bilingual education?
At Ecole Bilingue de Berkeley, students are immersed in a different language and culture starting at an early age. Thanks to a native French speaking faculty, 80% of the instruction time is conducted in French, while the remaining 20% is spent in English. Students slowly build their language skills and confidence as they advance through the preschool and into elementary.

Ecole Bilingue de Berkeley Reviews
The community is amazing, full of friendly people who quickly become great friends.
The teachers are wonderful: constantly working to develop interesting and engaging projects, differentiate learning while including and celebrating everyone, and bringing together both French and American traditions and pedagogy. Spending even five minutes with them will make it obvious how dedicated and passionate they are, and how much they care about the kids. And they're so full of creativity in their teaching. A relative asked my daughter which was her favorite subject, and she said "all of them."
And the Administration is excellent from top to bottom: friendly, open, deeply engaged, accessible, and committed to getting better and better.
In my experience, everyone interacts respectfully and sincerely, with trust and goodwill.
