Cultivate the love of French language
and Francophone cultures
EFGS is a nonprofit after-school program, teaching French in the PNW to children
with French background ages from 3.5 to 17.
Enrollment is still open, but please note that most our classrooms are full now for School Year 2024-25. We still invite you to contact us if you are interested, as we do have a wait list and sometimes open additional classrooms if we have enough students interested.
We still have availability in our online classes, as well as in-person middle school and high school classrooms!

What makes us unique?
EFGS is a non-profit organization officially founded in 2009 at the initiative of a French-speaking group of parents with the support of the FLAM (Français LAngue Maternelle) program.
Our mission is to provide the French-speaking community in the Pacific Northwest a high-quality French language program that celebrates and supports multicultural students on their educational journey.
Our language program was carefully thought and validated by education professionals to ensure high quality and strengthen the four pillars of language (understanding, speaking, writing and reading) in a stimulating and engaging environment.
Children have many opportunities to exchange, share, listen, read and write in French.
We currently offer French classes for French-speaking students with classes on-site in Seattle and online.
