Secondly, the school has always been diverse and we love that about it. Other private schools now have DEI to push diversity since George Floyd but Lyceum had always been diverse at its core which is a true statement to its value. Lastly, we love the staff and the education team. Their dedication and professionalism are unmatched. Our son is thriving thanks to them: he loves going to school, the number of subjects/activities they covered in class is outstanding. Lyceum Kennedy is the school that offers the highest education compare to other French/English bilingual schools in the northeast.
