About our School…
The Lycée International de Los Angeles (LILA) - also known as The French American Schools of Southern California - offers programs beginning with pre-kindergarten and leading to preparation for an American high school diploma, a French Baccalauréat or an International Baccalaureate diploma.
We believe in a humanistic approach to education, based on knowledge, skill, and reason across many fields. We attempt to provide our students with a joy for learning that will carry through their entire lives. Our curriculum is based on a combination of the rigor of the French educational system and the American value placed on individualism.
Live an international summer in Los Feliz!
The summer school program runs for 6 weeks: from Monday, June 22nd to Friday, July 31st 2009 serving ages 2 1/2 - 11 years old. The morning focuses on language acquisition through verbal, written and reading exercises. The afternoon is all about fun (still with an immersion in the language!). The camp facility is licensed by the State of California as a daycare center. Previous exposure to the French language is not required; we offer a fun and valuable experience to all children!
The objective of this program is to introduce children to the French language and culture at an early age when they still have a linguistic openness to easily learn a second language. Their adaptability, their lack of inhibition and above all their ability to reproduce any sound accurately will help them learn a second language with great ease. The course is designed to be challenging and fun at the same time. This program encourages the children to work together and progress at their own pace using a structured curriculum with workbooks and other fun activities.
The curriculum promotes the development of speaking, listening, reading and writing skills. In order to achieve fluency, various activities are undertaken in spelling, dictation and pronunciation as well as short writing tasks. The classes are designed for both beginning and intermediate speaking abilities.
