A culture of engagement. Welcome to French American and International! At French American and International, being a part of the community means belonging to a family of faculty, staff, friends, and parents who seek to offer our students the best educational opportunities in an exciting learning environment. Our families contribute to this exceptional school in the following ways:
Tuition Annual Fund support Volunteerism Community building events Capital Investments
Together we raise revenue and give our time to support students, teachers, and programming throughout the school. Beyond tuition, the school receives over $1.3 million in contributions each year from our parents, alumni families, grandparents, foundations, corporations, and friends to support our 1000+ students and current-year operations. In addition, we work to build our endowment fund (currently $6 million) for long-term financial stability and from time to time embark on capital projects to keep our programs strong.
Your engagement not only helps build a stronger program, but it also builds a stronger community. For more information on the many ways to support the school and our students, please visit www.internationalsf.org/support
