The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My 5th grader has been a student at FCSO since TK. It is truly and amazing community of families and teachers. Although there is a lack of resources, the academic program is really strong and my child reads, writes and speaks French at grade level.

Francophone has definitely surpassed my expectations. I was reluctant at first in enrolling my little kindergartner into a French immersion school, especially with neither of us parents speaking French, but I am happy that I did. With this year being my child's first year in school, we were worried...

We are a non-French speaking family and my two children have had a wonderful experience learning French at Francophone. They love all the educational field trips and many afterschool clubs!
