French International Celebrates 35th Annual Gala and Auction

On Saturday, April 29, parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, and friends of French International celebrated at the Annual Gala and Auction. With more than 300 people in attendance, this year’s Gala was the biggest in school history.

We are grateful for the generous support of our community who helped raise more than $175,000 and counting. All of the money raised at the Gala supports financial aid at French International helping increase access to our school, ensuring tuition is not a barrier for someone who wants to enter our school program, and enriching the classroom experience for every student.

If you missed your chance to support the special appeal, you still have a chance to support donate here.
