A useful wellness tip is to choose activities based on your energy levels, to make time to rest and recharge whenever necessary, and to cultivate meaningful activities that bring you joy and other positive emotions.

As we reach the midpoint of the academic year, we can already share exciting news about our Class of 2025 and their early college admissions results. The quality of these results certainly demonstrate how well-tailored college choices are to each student’s aspirations as well as the remarkable availability, and expertise of Lycée teachers and college counselors. However, the challenge does not end with college admissions and the ability to adapt and succeed in the new university environment is just as critical.

Before children begin using books, paper, pens, or tablets, they first learn how to live together, build friendships, and resolve conflicts. These fundamental, lifelong social skills are initially practiced on the playground and then intentionally nurtured through circle time, reading, class discussions, school plays, and clubs.

The theme of the 2025 edition is 'Francophonie: A Journey Through Time and Space'. Our students tackled this challenging topic with great skill, exploring what the French-speaking world means to them and the difficult, often problematic conditions under which it was formed. At times, they connected the subject to their personal histories, while also reflecting on how speaking French has proven beneficial in their lives.
