I have been going to French American since I was four years old and I've had an amazing experience. There are great teachers who are always there to help you learn and provide external resources. The same goes for the high school which helps us a lot with academic needs such as learning accommodations and college counselors who have helped countless people get into amazing colleges (domestic and international). I think like any school it has its flaws which I would say would be school culture and diversity. The school is working on it but struggles with diversity with a very little population of students of color. The school does, however, create seminars about race and the importance of racial awareness and activism.
The school is also so focused on academics that it forgets about school culture which has become rather weak.
But in general, it is a wonderful school that is really strong academically and cares for its students and their needs, always looking out for the students.

Overall, great student body and teachers. Classes really push students to think analytically, especially in math and english. However, the French Bac is definetly overshadowed by the IB, but in comparing work load, the amount of work in the French Bac seems excessive. As a student, I had extreme levels of stress and felt that we got little recognition or reward for the amount of work we put into our academics. Aside from that, great extra curricular and service opportunities though the faculty does a poor job in encouraging its students to join early on. They also give pretty much no standardized testing prep. Aside from all these downsides, I feel that both the IB and the French Bac offer an unmatched curriculum. The student body is diverse, accepting, little to no bullying. Everyone is extremely friendly as ihs puts a lot of emphasis on its student body being very accepting.
International High School (IHS) is a wonderful school that prepares students for university through the rigorous International Baccalaureate/French Baccalaureate curriculum. The teachers and faculty are very supportive and always try to help the students in any way they can. Although some of the facilities are not state of the art, the school makes it up with their challenging yet rewarding curriculum. Additionally, the college counselors at the school really help students find the right schools that fit for them and they are also very helpful throughout the college application process in general. In addition to that, International High School has an amazing global travel program where students can choose to go to places such as Burma, China/Tibet, Galapagos, etc. International High School of San Francisco is the perfect school for any student who is wants to push themselves academically, has a passion for theatre or sports, and have a strong desire to travel.
