School throws big to-do
Those seeking a different kind of education will rejoice when the San Diego French-American School hosts an Open House on Wednesday, Nov. 7, from 9 to 10:30 a.m., at its campus at 6550 Soledad Mountain Road.
“Parents of prospective students will have the opportunity to learn more about the benefits of a bilingual curriculum in French and English, and they will be able to tour the campus,” said Virginia Berracasa, the school’s communications and admissions officer.
The event is geared toward parents of preschool children, as well as kindergartners through eighth-graders, and will afford the opportunity to visit classrooms, observe teachers and more.
“At the Open House, we will explain how we prepare our students to enter either an American high school or a French lyce’e, after the eighth grade,” Berracasa said. “With our dual-language curriculum, we can educate the students in both languages.”
For information or to make reservations for the open house, call (858) 456-2807, ext. 306.

The Bishop’s School is located at 7607 La Jolla Blvd. For information call Joy Davis, (858) 459-4021, ext. 244, or visit www.bishops.com.
