Lycée Saint-Exupéry, nicknamed Saint-Ex, is a sixth-form college/senior high school in the 15th arrondissement of Marseille, France. [1]
As of 2013 [update] the attendance zone of Saint-Exupéry covers those of nine different junior high schools (collèges). [2]
History
It began construction in 1957, when there was a " baby boom" in the Marseille area. It was originally called Lycée Nord. [2]
In 2013 Sylvia Zappi of Le Monde described the school as a "lycée ghetto", saying that staff members used that name. [2]
That year former teacher Franck Baillot stated that only poor families attend the school; Zappi stated that wealthier families in the area tried their best to make sure their children did not attend the school. As of 2013 [update] 40% of residents in the high school attendance zone who apply to go to sixth-form/senior high through the Affelnet procedure were assigned to Saint-Exupéry, but the school only received 19% of the students who could have applied, based on previous year attendance in the corresponding high school zone. [2]
As of 2015 [update] 80 female students, making up about 5% of the student body, remove veils before going to classes. [3]
Teachers went on strike in 2016. [4]
Campus
It includes a boarding (internat) facility. [5]
In 2008 a new wing was added to the building. [2]
