Love the school! My daughter has only been here for 2 months and is already singing French songs to me. The school is kept clean and there are lots of opportunities for parents to become involved. The class sizes are small and some of the after school activities are even taught by former Olympians (i.e. my daughter's karate teacher)! The staff is really kind and sweet to my young daughter. I recommend this school to anyone who believes bilingualism can be a plus in this world.

I never thought I would consider moving to Katy, but my child's education is a priority. My wife and I went to the open house and we are beyond impressed. They spared no expense. Everything is top of the line. Plus, the school is so clean! I was able to talk to the owners and listened to their vision. They really sold me on the school with everything they planned to do. They recruited the best of the best and it is reflected by the teachers who were present. I went ahead and registered my son for PK3 for the 2018-2019 term.

We are happy to be part of the LIH community since it opened last year. In just three months, our daughter, with whom we speak exclusively French at home, is now bilingual thanks to the Lycée. The school has organized many great events all year long including families. I highly recommend this school to families looking for a French-English bilingual program in the energy corridor.

I recently visited the school and was very impressed with their layout. From their smart classrooms, to their specially designed STEM room and art classroom, the attention to detail in every space, with the well-being and development of the students, is evident. I was equally impressed with LIH’s friendly faculty and staff, who have it as their mission to focus on each child’s strengths in order to help them grow and develop in a positive and multicultural environment.

It was difficult to make a decision to move my kids from another private schools but after a few weeks since the school began I knew that it was the best decision that I have made.
The passion of the head of school about aducation and the kids , the professionalism of the teachers, the friendly environment, the cleanliness of the school- I couldn’t ask for more. The school is very family oriented and try to accommodate all children from the family which is so important. I have had 2 years of difficult schedule because my son wasn’t accepted to the same school where my 2 other children were the students. I can tell that it’s very important that school garanties to the families that all their children will be accepted on equal rights and without prejudice and discrimination.
I love also that there is Spanish langauge added to the curriculum since 4th grade. It was such a pleasure to notice the progress that my daughter made in her Spanish throughout a year. I also love the flexibility in the time when you can pick up the children: it really shows to me that school tries to understand parents busy schedule and different sircumstances .
But mostly and above all : all 3 of my children were extremely happy and eager to go every day to school. The ambiance without pressure and bullying, friendly and helpful teachers who supported children . The curriculum is great and really made to stimulate the children’s envie to learn. My children would come home and would be reading books or tell me different things that they learned. And it feels so great to bring them every morning to the school and see them ready to go and willing to learn.
I’m very happy with the school, the personnel and the ambience in the school and feel fortunate for the opportunity to send my kids to the LIH.

This is the first time that I have seen my daughter engaged academically, challenged, and not to mention becoming bilingual - all thanks to this school, its excellent structure/curriculum, and the fantastic staff.

We got a little scared off this summer by some of the negative reviews that were here on google, so I approached the beginning of the school year with a skeptical eye, but determined to give it a solid shot. After becoming more and more involved, I can now recognize that this is a place where children's minds are respected and valued. I see my daughter thriving and motivated and I am amazed, humbled, and grateful. I am curious as to whether some of the other reviewers have much experience with other schools or life in general.

It's important to remember that new things aren't for everyone. Every single school has issues; the differences you encounter in a new and smaller school compared to a large, established one are similar to the differences in working in a small and exciting startup versus working at a behemoth corporation. So if your only experience with education has been at schools which existed for 60+ years, your expectations may be unrealistic. At the same time, larger schools don't tend to be as responsive. The amount of attention to detail that is given in this school is unprecedented; like any new endeavor, there are kinks that are being ironed out. But again, every school has issues and problems. The curriculum, staff, building, families, and VISION for this school is truly unique and we are grateful for it.

Unfortunately, people tend to believe negative things more than positive ones; it is interesting, then, that those who post only accusations and gossip do not leave their full name on their review. I would encourage anyone to visit the school and make your own decisions. For our family, it's the first time I have ever felt that our daughters were in an environment where I wouldn't change anything - they are excited every day for school, and watching them thrive is truly a delight. We are very grateful to have found LIH and look forward to many more years there.
