General Information
 

l

St. Joseph’s pre-school and elementary school is situated in the village of Lumbin (between Crolles and Le Touvet), in the heart of the Gresivaudan valley, in the Isère. The school is a part of the Grenoble Catholic Diocese and is also under contrat with the French government. St. Joseph’s school is open to all.

 
Classes

  • There are two pre-school classes (we accept to children starting at 2 and 1/2)
  • Three elementary classes
  • CLIS1 : A School Integration Class (for children with disabilities)

The teachers are in close contact with parents to ensure the best possible guidance for each pupil.Once or twice a year, an individual assessment is provided concerning each child’s overall development and progress in school work.

 
A Unique Environment

The school is housed in buildings that are over 100 years old on the outskirts of the village, and is surrounded by a beautiful wooded parkland.
