Paris American High School: A Tale of Two Schools

Paris American High School has a fascinating and little-known history that is really the story of two schools—the American Community School (ACS), founded in 1946 for children of American military families in postwar Paris, and the later Paris American High School (PAHS), which grew into a full campus in Garches by 1954. From classrooms in trailers, a French manor house, and even Madame du Barry’s former residence, to a purpose-built school with dormitories and athletic facilities, the evolution of PAHS reflects the remarkable experience of American families living in France after World War II.  Click here to read the full article: Paris American High School — A Tale of Two Schools


About Paris American High School

Paris American High School (PAHS), located in Garches just outside Paris, served the children of American military and diplomatic families stationed in France during the years following World War II. From its early beginnings in small buildings in central Paris to the purpose-built campus in Garches, PAHS became a close-knit international community where students shared the unique experience of growing up abroad.

When French President Charles de Gaulle withdrew France from NATO’s integrated military command in 1966, American military forces and their families were required to leave the country. As a result, Paris American High School held its final classes in 1967. Though the school closed, the friendships and shared experiences of PAHS students continue to connect classmates around the world.
