An Inclusive Community of People
We will increase access to French International to further enrich our school culture and cultivate a sense of belonging for all members of our community.
We Will
- Expand access to French International School of Oregon by increasing available financial aid funds and establishing a new transportation system.
- Continue to increase faculty and staff salaries and support them with a robust professional development program in order to retain and attract the very best.
- Create systems throughout French International that support a more diverse community.

On November 9, the Middle School celebrated community with team-building activities and service. Each advisory was grouped with an advisory from a different grade level, giving students the opportunity to get to know people from a different grade. They connected over shared interests and problem-solving.
