The New-York French American Charter School graduated  its 5th grade French bilingual students on Tuesday June 16th. It was time for this school to say goodbye to its promising students who now head towards their bright futures in Middle School.

Time flies and the school team did not hide its emotion while witnessing these children taking a new step in their life. After a beautiful entry of the children and the moving speeches of the School Director Marc Morris,  Richard Ortoli, the school's Board President, Catherine Watkins, its founder, Fabrice Jaumont, and the teachers. A young 3rd grade student even sang Edith Piaf’s La Vie en Rose in perfect French! The talented girl received a round of applause from the impressed parents, teachers and students.

The school team had even prepared a short video featuring the best moments of the school year, a nice way for them to remember the opportunity they had of studying in this bilingual school in Harlem, created for and by New York City's francophone community. Afterwards it was time for the proud graduates to receive their well-deserved certificates, and a gift from the French bookshop Albertine.
