Lycée privé Sainte-Geneviève, Catholic preparatory school in Versailles, France.
Lycée privé Sainte-Geneviève is a Catholic preparatory school in Versailles that trains students for entrance exams to France's top universities. It offers specialized courses in mathematics, physics, engineering, and economics, with science laboratories, study areas, and on-campus housing available.
The school was founded in 1854 by Jesuits and originally operated in Paris before moving to Versailles. This relocation marked the start of its rise as one of France's leading preparatory institutions.
The school embodies the motto 'Servir', reflecting how education here connects with broader social responsibility. This principle shapes the daily life and community activities visible throughout the campus.
The campus includes well-equipped science laboratories and quiet study areas for focused work. Visitors should know this is an active school environment where campus access may be restricted.
Students affectionately call the school 'Ginette' or 'BJ', nicknames rooted in its Jesuit past. These informal names reveal how central the institution is to its community's identity.
