French American School Of Tampa Bay

The French American School of Tampa Bay offers a multicultural educational experience through French immersion from Early Childhood through grade 12, instilling in our students a constant curiosity towards foreign languages and the diverse cultures of the world. The multicultural approach at FASTB provides students the opportunity to benefit from French and American education systems, combining the approaches of two different and complementary educational methods. The education is further enhanced by exposure to both cultures.

The school's vision is centered upon the fascinating relationship between music and art education and the immersion process of learning a second language. Though the national trend is to reduce these components of education, we believe that a strong music and art curriculum lays the foundation for strong mathematical and scientific intelligence. All grade levels will be immersed in music and art programs, including Music Theory, the Choral Program, Music & Me and an opportunity for private Suzuki instrumental lessons.

We believe that it is through play, actions and the search for independence that each child discovers his/her unique path to learning and obtains the necessary tools for development. The children are encouraged to express themselves freely in French and through various art forms, helping them boost their confidence and their knowledge. It's through this commitment to language and culture that we're able to provide a diverse, mind-opening educational experience in an atmosphere of understanding and discovery.
