Who we are
Welcome to the French American School of Silicon Valley
At the French American School of Silicon Valley (FASSV), we believe that a truly world-class education pairs intellectual rigor with humanity, curiosity, and purpose. From Preschool through Middle School, our students grow as bilingual thinkers, compassionate leaders, and confident communicators prepared to thrive in an interconnected world.
We are proud to be accredited by the French Ministry of Education and the California Association of Independent Schools (CAIS), affirming our commitment to the highest standards of academic quality, global fluency, and student well-being.
Early Childhood: Preschool & Kindergarten
Our Early Childhood program immerses children in a joyful, nurturing bilingual environment that sparks a lifelong love of learning. Through play, exploration, and creative inquiry, students build strong foundations in both French and English literacy, as well as early numeracy, social-emotional skills, and cultural awareness.
No prior French experience is required for Preschool through 1st Grade enrollment. Our teachers guide children seamlessly through bilingual acquisition, ensuring each child feels confident and supported as they grow.
Elementary School: Grades 1–5
In the Elementary years, students engage in a balanced 50/50 French–English curriculum that combines the best of the French Ministry of Education and California Common Core Standards. They learn to think deeply, collaborate across cultures, and express themselves with precision and creativity.
Hands-on science, literature, mathematics, and the humanities are taught in both languages, offering students the ability to analyze complex ideas through multiple perspectives. With small class sizes and dedicated teachers, every student is both challenged and known.
Middle School: Grades 6–8
FASSV’s Middle School continues the tradition of bilingual excellence while fostering independence, leadership, and innovation. Students study French, English, and Spanish, develop analytical and public speaking skills through robotics, speech and debate, and broaden their worldview through international field trips and cultural experiences.
At this stage, students grow into articulate, resilient learners who are academically prepared and globally minded — ready to transition seamlessly into diverse high school programs across the world.
A Community Rooted in Excellence
Across every grade, FASSV remains a place where students feel seen, supported, and inspired. Our bilingual program does more than teach languages, it shapes how students think, connect, and lead.
Join our community and discover an education that celebrates both academic depth and human connection, a place where children grow not just as scholars, but as global citizens with open minds and confident voices.
