Sample Courses
In 2019, Macris School and La Alianza Francesa signed a convention to build a partnership and bring the French language and culture to our school. In High School, students can opt to study French as an elective and the classes are taught by teachers certified and supervised by La Alianza Francesa. In Elementary School, students can learn French as an extracurricular activity. Additionally, La Alianza Francesa brings cultural productions and activities that enrich the whole school and expose our students to another language and culture.

Students are also encouraged to take independent AP courses and the school will organize the AP testing administration.
