Zahra Lohoue, FASP Class of '19
Mila Cooper, FASP Class Of '21
Michelle Bronsard, FASP Class of '14
My 10 year experience at FASP was unlike anything I could have received at any other school. The dynamic between the teachers and the students was amazing and the smaller classes allowed for more attention to be given to students. I was able to participate on many educational trips such as our trip to the United Nations and my eighth grade trip to Puerto Rico where we learnt about the different ecosystems of the island and its history. We also had speakers from other countries educate us about their life and experiences. I truly don’t believe I could have had such a unique, bilingual experience anywhere else.
