About the French American School of Chicago (EFAC)

The French American School of Chicago, known as EFAC, stands as a unique educational entity, established in 1981 and operating within the premises of Abraham Lincoln Elementary School and Lincoln Park High School. Born from the vision of integrating French and American educational philosophies, EFAC has grown into a vibrant, bilingual institution that serves students from elementary through to 12th grade.

Our Foundation: EFAC is the product of a pioneering partnership between Abraham Lincoln Elementary School, Lincoln Park High School, and the French educational system. This collaboration is designed to deliver a bilingual education that upholds the standards and curricula of both the French Ministry of Education and the American educational framework.
