Gustave Eiffel Academy a multilingual international school founded in 2023, dedicated to nurturing global citizens who can move easily between languages, cultures, and educational systems.

Through multiple international postings, we worked in diverse educational environments, held teaching and leadership roles, and developed strong expertise in pedagogy, curriculum coordination, and school management. These experiences led us to create a school that combines academic rigor, cultural openness, and educational innovation.

Our mission is to prepare students for academic success while equipping them with the skills needed to think critically and engage with the world from a global perspective. We emphasize responsible behavior, respect, honesty, self-control, and care for others and the planet. Our goal is to develop multilingual and multicultural minds, creative thinkers, confident speakers, and students who are both intellectually grounded and physically aware.

Gustave Eiffel Academy offers a multilingual curriculum with a strong emphasis on French immersion. Instruction is delivered through a balanced combination of the French national curriculum and Florida State Standards. French language and curriculum form the backbone of our academic program, while students also receive instruction in English, science, and social studies aligned with U.S. standards, as well as Spanish, mathematics, physical education, music, and visual arts.

We are committed to providing families with educational flexibility. Our program is designed to allow smooth transitions between French and American school systems, without academic gaps or unnecessary stress. In alignment with this philosophy, our long-term objective is for students to complete the French Brevet earlier, at the end of 8th grade, enabling them to enter U.S. high schools with strong academic credentials and advanced language proficiency.

At our St. Petersburg campus, we welcome students from 1st through 8th grade. The future South Tampa campus will eventually serve students from Kindergarten through 8th grade, prior to the opening of a high school in the coming years. For the 2026–2027 school year, its opening year, the South Tampa campus will welcome students in Kindergarten, 1st grade, and 2nd grade only. This is a unique opportunity to be part of the launch of a new school.

At its core, Gustave Eiffel Academy is a school built on strong academic foundations, multilingual excellence, cultural openness, and a close partnership with families. Our purpose is not only to educate students, but to prepare them to thrive confidently in an interconnected, international world.
