Order Fruit Trees and Vines!
Fruit trees make great holiday gifts and this year we have 60 items to choose from! It's a clutter-free gift that keeps on giving for years...and the recipients will certainly thank you every time they enjoy a nice fresh squeezed glass of OJ, a squeeze of lemon on fish dishes, a fresh lime wedge with their margaritas, or a refreshing mojito! The uses are endless! Pick up is on December 2 at Lycee Francais' Marche d'Hiver! The deadline to order is November 30. The trees are only $27 to $35 each which is the BEST pricing in town. They trees are from Plaquemines Parish and are 3-5 feet tall.
If you are interested in purchasing a fruit tree click HERE. Please contact Lesley Prochaska with any questions at [email protected].

REMINDER: if your child is currently enrolled in Pre-K4 (tuition) at Lycée Français de la Nouvelle-Orléans, please note that you are required to submit a OneApp for Kindergarten - specifically to Lycée - if you wish to continue with us.
The OneApp says that you do not need to apply to the school your child already attends. That is true for most schools. Lycée Tuition Pre-K4 to Kindergarten is the exception to the rule. If your child occupies a tuition Pre-K4 seat, you do need to apply to K. The Tuition Based program and the Kindergarten and up program count as two different programs because they have different funding sources.
You may submit a OneApp online with your existing account (the one you used last year). Your deadline is February 23, 2018. The early deadline for January 12th 2018 ONLY applies to applicants for 1st grade and up, not to Pre-K4 or Kindergarten.
Please contact Cristina with the Admissions department at [email protected] should you have any questions or need your children's OneApp IDs.
