The French American International School (''École Internationale Franco-Américaine'') is a French and English language private school in Portland, Oregon, United States. The school has an annual operating budget of over $7 million. Approximately 92 percent of operating revenue is generated by tuition, with other operations and fundraising activities accounting for the remaining 8 percent. A partner school, the German American School, is located in Portland, and serves grades K-5. Its graduates may elect to attend middle school at FAIS, in order to receive German-language instruction in language arts and social studies. Community participation is emphasized at the French American International School. In 2012, three high school women who learned French at FAIS assisted with a WWII translation project about "a B-17 crash in the Alps near the French-Italian border." A cookbook by the Families and Friends of The French American International School, ''Livre de Cuisine : A Compendium of World Recipes'', has been favorably reviewed for its use of local food and focus on bringing young people into the kitchen to cook.〔 〕 The school has received Audubon Society certification for "removal of invasive weeds and practicing wildlife stewardship," and a City Commissioner complimented its students for providing "sophisticated ideas and articulate comments" on the 2010 Portland Plan. ==See also== * Agence pour l'enseignement français à l'étranger * Education in France * German American School, Portland, OR * American School of Paris - An American international school in France 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「French American International School (Portland, Oregon)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
