The French American School of Puget Sound (FASPS) is embarking on an exciting new chapter with the establishment of a brand-new campus in Seattle. The overwhelming success and popularity of the FASPS program have necessitated expansion beyond the current Mercer Island location, prompting the creation of multiple hubs to cater to the diverse and growing community.
The Mercer Island campus, in partnership with the Stroum Jewish Community Center, has been a central hub for children aged 18 months to Grade 8, providing a harmonized bilingual education. A preschool was successfully launched in Capitol Hill in 2024.
The forthcoming permanent home in Seattle, scheduled to open its doors in 2026, is strategically located in the North Beacon Hill area, leveraging FASPS' existing property assets. The selection of this site, near four other independent schools, presents ample development opportunities given the parcel's size, zoning, and the surrounding area's characteristics.
