Lycée Germaine Tillion, previously Lycée du Bourget, is a senior high school/sixth-form college in Le Bourget, Seine-Saint-Denis, France, in the Paris metropolitan area.

Contents

It houses the "Microlycée 93" for students who had dropped out. This microlycée first opened in 2009 in La Courneuve.

History

The school was built to relieve Lycée Eugène Delacroix in Drancy, which had over 1,800 students before the opening of the new Le Bourget high school. However the député-maire of Drancy, Jean-Christophe Lagarde, was upset at the opening of the new Le Bourget lycée.

The school opened in September 2014, making it the 65th public senior high/sixth-form in Seine-Saint-Denis; at the time it had 240 students.

In 2016 Ile de France authorities renamed the school after Germaine Tillion.

Campus

The grounds in which the school was built, the former école normale, were renovated with a cost of 28.51 million euros. The building, with a capacity of 655 students, has 1930s architecture.
