The MLCS French Study Tour in La Rochelle, France recently wrapped up on June 26, 2026. Students spent four weeks living with host families, experiencing French culture, and visiting historic sites.

Highlights include visits to La Rochelle’s old port, Cathédrale Saint-Louis, and to Saintes, a city with a Gallo-Roman background. Students and their French high school partners also participated in a scavenger hunt based on the historical connections between La Rochelle and Canada.
