Info
Marymount International School, Paris in Neuilly-sur-Seine, France is the oldest international school in the Paris metropolitan area and is part of the Religious of the Sacred Heart of Mary network of Marymount schools.The history of Marymount Paris can be traced back to 1846 when Father Jean Gailhac founded an order of Sisters in Béziers in the south of France. The objective, considered a progressive idea at that time, was the education of young women. Schools eventually opened in Portugal, England, Ireland and the United States. When Marymount College was opened in Tarrytown, New York in 1908, the founder's new vision was to educate from an international perspective. Study abroad centers were then established in London, Paris and Rome. Marymount Paris opened on September 30, 1923 in town of Neuilly-sur-Seine, just outside Paris.
Today, Marymount International School, Paris provides an American-based curriculum education to students aged 2 to 14. The school also has an extension program that offers English-language vacation camps and after school English-language programs for local French children.
There are typically 400 - 450 pupils enrolled each year at the school from about 40 different countries.
