San Diego French-American School is an independent, co-educational private school offering a dual-language program for students from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade, with about 380 students enrolled. Located on Mount Soledad in La Jolla, California, the campus supports a compact, academically focused environment that emphasizes social-emotional learning and holistic development, a model it has pursued since its founding in 1988. The school holds accreditations from the French Ministry of Education, the California Association of Independent Schools, and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, reflecting its alignment with international and regional standards. It serves families seeking a bilingual international education within the San Diego private-school sector and maintains ties to a broader French-American school network. In May 2025, the school participated in the 74th California Science and Engineering Fair, with seventh graders Eva and Julianna earning notable recognition.
