Une \u00e9ducation impactante\u00a0: Depuis 1961, la Leysin American School, en Suisse, est ancr\u00e9e dans son identit\u00e9 familiale. Fond\u00e9e par une famille d'\u00e9ducateurs d\u00e9sireux de rassembler des \u00e9l\u00e8ves de toutes cultures au lendemain de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, la LAS b\u00e9n\u00e9ficie de la vision strat\u00e9gique et de l'amour sinc\u00e8re que ses premiers responsables ont transmis au fil des d\u00e9cennies. Depuis trois g\u00e9n\u00e9rations, la famille Ott et une \u00e9quipe d'\u00e9ducateurs talentueux encadrent des \u00e9l\u00e8ves du monde entier, les motivant \u00e0 atteindre leur plein potentiel scolaire et extrascolaire. Sous leur direction avis\u00e9e, la LAS est devenue ce qu'elle est aujourd'hui\u00a0: un vaste campus alpin qui accueille plus de 300 \u00e9l\u00e8ves du monde entier (50 nationalit\u00e9s diff\u00e9rentes\u00a0!).
\nAu LAS, les \u00e9tudiants deviennent les meilleures versions d'eux-m\u00eames, deviennent de v\u00e9ritables citoyens du monde et vivent l'aventure de leur vie dans un endroit s\u00fbr et inspirant.<\/p>\n

Learning at LAS:
At LAS, we offer a differentiated educational program that meets students\u2019 needs and supports them as they realize their academic potential. The flexibility of our program allows students to mix and match classes. We offer academic programs for students in grades 7 through 12, including the International Baccalaureate Programme (IB), Advanced Placement (AP), and the American diploma program. We move education beyond the confines of the classroom, providing our students with impactful experiential learning opportunities so they can see the practical applications of their studies in the real world. LAS students also enjoy small class sizes and have access to ample support and resources.<\/p>\n
University Advising:
\nWe take pride not only in educating stellar students but also in attracting the attention of strong universities. Our university advisors begin working with students in grade 9, building relationships that focus on character and personal excellence.
\nSince every student has different interests, academic needs, talents, and personalities, the LAS university advisors recognize the need to personalize a plan to help each student develop a realistic and balanced list of universities. At LAS, our philosophy is to guide students in their quest to find the university that is the \u201cbest fit\u201d for their abilities, interests, and needs.
\nOur experienced university advisors have visited hundreds of universities and maintain direct contact with university admissions representatives all over the world!<\/p>\n
Our university advisories provide a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, encouraging students to drop in before or after school, during their independent study blocks, at lunch, or by scheduling an appointment. They have an open-door policy, and all students are invited to meet with their university advisors throughout the year.<\/p>","extra_curricula_description":"
Athletics, Activities, and Arts:
\nPerhaps no part of the LAS program is more immediately exciting than the breadth and quality of our athletic and activity offerings. We offer students more than sixty different options to choose from!<\/p>\n
Athletic and activity offerings range from leisure paddleboarding on Lake Geneva to world-class ski training, allowing our students to choose a level of activity that best suits their needs. Whether our students are playing football against rival schools, hiking in the Alps, or playing in the rock band, we know that they will find an activity that they love.<\/p>\n
We offer academic and community service opportunities as well, including Model United Nations (MUN), National Honor Society, and the LAS Student Council, to name just a few!<\/p>\n
LAS provides a rich and supportive arts program for students of all artistic interests and backgrounds. Students have a wealth of opportunities to experience the arts built into our academic program and our extracurricular offerings.<\/p>\n
Winter in the Swiss Alps:
\nWinter is a special time in the Swiss Alps, and we take full advantage of everything the season offers! From ice climbing and alpine mountaineering to skiing and snowboarding, students can fully enjoy the winter season here at LAS.<\/p>\n
One of the best ways to appreciate the grandeur of our alpine location is through our ski and snowboard program. Leysin-Les Mosses-La L\u00e9cherette (our home mountain!) is a well-recognized ski resort with over 100 kilometers of pistes to discover!
\nDuring the ski season, the entire school heads to the mountain after lunch every Tuesday and Thursday to enjoy an afternoon on the slopes. While our lesson program helps beginners become safely acquainted with the sport, our advanced skiers and snowboarders can participate in our racing or freeride programs.<\/p>\n
Our location gives us easy access to some of the best alpine destinations in the world, and LAS students enjoy regular trips to world-class destinations such as Zermatt, Verbier, Saas-Fee, and Crans-Montana.<\/p>\n
Extraordinary Adventures:
\nWhether you fancy active international adventures or intimate cultural immersions, at LAS, the world is truly at your fingertips!
\nOur students have quick access to the incredible beauty of the European continent and the world beyond through our curated travel programs, including week-long cultural trips, weekend excursions, and day travel.<\/p>\n
Our students might read about ancient Greek history one week and then tour the ancient ruins in Athens the next! Recent trips include an Italian art and culinary experience in Venice, service work in Zimbabwe, scuba diving in Cyprus, French language immersion in Morocco, and team building through Outward Bound in Germany.<\/p>\n
No matter where the adventure takes them, LAS students can connect with their peers while discovering traditions, languages, and experiences that are different from theirs. These experiences allow them to gain a more intricate understanding of the world and their place in it while developing into independent, globally-minded adults.<\/p>","accommodation_description":"","day_school_min_yearly_fee_in_usd":"105630","cost_description_day_students":"","boarding_school_min_yearly_fee_in_usd":"133640","cost_description_boarding_students":"","accreditations":"IBO, NEASC","enrollment_phase":"Gr 7 - 12, PG","staff_student_ratio":"1:4","health_amp_safety":"","nr_of_nationalities":"60","min_number_of_months_enrollment":"12","facilities_description":"","name_extra_campus_1":"","description_extra_campus_1":"","address_extra_campus_1":"","yearly_fee_min":"120000","yearly_fee_max":"","fee_currency":"chf","scholarship_description":"","online_learning_information":"","online_student_support":"","technology_platform":"","online_community":"","why_choose_reason_1":"Mountain campus fuels outdoor learning","why_choose_reason_2":"Cultural immersion via 60+ nationalities","why_choose_reason_3":"Personal growth through service trips","chargebee_subscription_id":"2363393000000225555","plan":"5"},"boarding-option":[],"time-zones":[],"scholarship":[],"learning-formats":[],"extra-curricular-activities":[],"special-needs":[],"examination":[5319,5315],"religion":[],"language-of-instruction":[10309],"language-lessons":[10312,10313,10327],"curricula":[10323,10325],"gender":[10315],"type-of-school":[10324,12447],"student-age":[10318,10319],"region":[5303,5509,5312,5313],"facilities":[],"class_list":["post-566494","schools","type-schools","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","examination-american-diploma","examination-ib-diploma","language-of-instruction-english","language-lessons-french","language-lessons-german","language-lessons-spanish","curricula-us-curriculum","curricula-ib","gender-co-education","type-of-school-boarding-school","type-of-school-private-school","student-age-6-12-yo","student-age-13-19-yo","region-europe","region-leysin","region-switzerland","region-vaud"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/schools\/566494","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/schools"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/schools"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/288"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/schools\/566494\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/566139"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=566494"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"boarding-option","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/boarding-option?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"time-zones","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/time-zones?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"scholarship","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/scholarship?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"learning-formats","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/learning-formats?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"extra-curricular-activities","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/extra-curricular-activities?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"special-needs","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/special-needs?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"examination","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/examination?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"religion","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/religion?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"language-of-instruction","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/language-of-instruction?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"language-lessons","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/language-lessons?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"curricula","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/curricula?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"gender","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/gender?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"type-of-school","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/type-of-school?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"student-age","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/student-age?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"region","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/region?post=566494"},{"taxonomy":"facilities","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/world-schools.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/facilities?post=566494"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
