Collège Notre-Dame de Jamhour (Arabic: مدرسة سيدة الجمهور) is a private Catholic primary and secondary school, located in Jamhour, in the Baabda District of the Mount Lebanon Governorate, Lebanon. The co-educational French-language school was founded by the Society of Jesus.
Overview
The school campus is set in a pine forest and includes Petit Collège, Grand collège, a church, and a sports complex. Before the late 1950s, the campus was located on Rue Huvelin in Beirut.[1] Notre-Dame offers French and Lebanese baccalaureate programs with specializations in mathematics (Sciences générales), biology (Sciences de la vie), economics, social sciences (ES), and humanities (H). Language classes include French, Arabic, English, and Spanish/Italian (optional).
Jamhour was founded in Ghazir and is still run by Jesuit priests. It welcomes students from "douzième" (equivalent of kindergarten) to "Terminale" (12th grade). It is affiliated with Collège Saint-Grégoire in Achrafieh, Beirut,[2] and has close ties and a common history with the Université Saint-Joseph (USJ).
