Who we are

Learning that helps children grow, question, and contribute.

The Académie is proudly located on the campus of Myers Park Baptist Church in Charlotte, North Carolina—a setting that naturally reflects our values of community, openness, respect, and care for the whole child. This location holds special meaning for the French-speaking community in Charlotte. For many years, bilingual and multicultural initiatives, including programs connected to the Alliance Française and La Petite École, have found a welcoming home here. These shared experiences created strong cultural and educational bonds, making Myers Park Baptist Church a natural and meaningful starting place for The Académie. The campus offers a beautiful, calm, and nurturing environment, ideal for learning and personal growth. Its welcoming atmosphere supports our mission to provide a safe, inclusive, and family-oriented school experience, where children feel secure, inspired, and valued. We are grateful to share a space with Myers Park Baptist Church, whose core values—kindness, respect, service, and community engagement—align closely with our own educational philosophy. This partnership allows us to grow within a setting that honors both academic excellence and human values, while fostering cultural dialogue and mutual respect. At The Académie, our campus is more than a location—it is a place where education, culture, and community come together, offering students a strong and meaningful foundation for their bilingual journey.
